One of my top Chards anywhere in the world & one of the few wines that I will drink that has a high alcohol level because it’s so delicious with lots of tropical fruits, nice creaminess, good acidity & not overtly oaked.
Tasting Note: Bright yellow gold in colour with good acidity, a medium intense nose & a long length on the finish. Wine features lemon, peach, mangos, pineapple, Spy apples, crème brûlée, ginger, oak spice & Easter Lily on the nose.
Negatives: High alcohol
Pairings: Drink now or over the next 5-7 years on its own or pair it with steamed lobster & drawn butter.
My Opinion: Highly Recommended
