A touch of oak, not too much. Good acidity, a touch of salinity.

Ok, it's a Cali chard and I'm seriously impressed. One of the most beautifully balanced chards I've ever had out of the west coast. Cheers!!

A bit acidic/sharp but a good chard none the less. Medium oak, not as good as I remember from same wine a year ago.

A medium body Chard with some oak and a bit buttery. Very nice to go with lighter foods.

A light Chardonnay without too much oak, perhaps a bit effervescent as well. Can be for cocktails or seafood along as not highly spiced.
