Delicious and very round in the mouth. Not overly oaky at all, a little on the lean side. Just delicious

One of my favorite everyday Chards. Lovely buttery notes with an appropriate amount of acidity.

Again. Amazing that he can get that much creaminess without malolactic fermentation. Every time i try Nils Venge wines, I say I want to try his higher lanes, but I always forget!

Very pleasant. Good mouthfeel. Nice balance of freshness and butter, despite no malolactic fermentation. Must be the bâtonage.
