Granny Smith apple, lemon, lime zest, vanilla and buttery oak. Good acidity and balance with oak.

Toffee and caramel candy popcorn on the nose. Really obvious style with heavy oak. If that is your style, not a bad price.

Great chard! Balanced, just the right amount of oak. Summer in a glass. Thanks Bobby and Val!

Strong oak and fruit. However lacks finish and complexity. Could use a little more body to hold up the strong front end.
