Beautiful old school style of chard. Intense butterscotch and minerals on the nose, palate is extremely balanced, gorgeous purity of fruit, vibrant but not overpowering acidity, super soft finish, resonating peach and apple skin on the back end. Great bottle with amazing balance.

Failla makes some of the best California chards. The warm russian river climate yields tropical fruit notes, but the wine retains excellent minerality and a fantastic green apple crispness. The oak is balanced and plays a supporting role here, lending just the right amount of creaminess. A stunning white.

Really lovely chard from @Ehren Jordan Just a pretty expression of great fruit. Opened a little sharp but mellowed so nicely, a little warmth helps too. Just a pleasure
