Color says it all... This Chard gone thru its peak unfortunately. Some elegance and vitality left, lucky me! )
Flash chill of must, light pressing, fermented 15 days at 12°-14°C.
Was 3 months on its lees in stainless steel vats, then 6 months in bottles.
Dark yellow to amber, orangey glitters.
Tangerine peels, apricots, peaches. Whiff of wheat crust, camomile, nutmeg and withered grass.
Light-plus bodied palate, shadowed acidity. Quite flat and boring. Orange, yellow apple, apricot drink.
Unimpressive finish copying palate.
Was ok with grilled seabass and Greek salad.
