Golden with aromas of fruit and toasty creamy oak spice. On the palate pear, apple and honey with hints of peach and citrus notes and nice round oaky tones, showing its age. Medium+ finish ending with a sweet creamy mineral edge. Don’t wait any longer on this one!

Drinking well but showing its age. Not built for the cellar, ready to go. Needed time too, at first it was hard to get all the layers from the glass

Another head scratcher with no rating. Just seemed a little off. It showed extremely bruised fruits...some reductive notes. No acidity. Like drinking older pineapple & mango run off juice. Don’t have anything to compare this against as I’ve only had a handful of BC chards.

Great acidity. Tasting blind I thought this was from the Jura.
