Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good (89)

Review date: July 26, 2009

Wine Review: This very richly colored yellow Chard opens with a spicy ripe pear like bouquet with a hint of lemon. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and slightly viscous. It also shows gentle acidity throughout. The flavor profile is a blend of apple and apricot with nicely integrated toasted oak. The finish is dry, a bit tingly, and refreshing. This wine would pair well with chicken picatta. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: On the nose, nectarine, peach and lemon-lime notes are deftly balanced with complex yet integrated charry and toasted French oak. The palate is luscious, vibrant and elegant with great opulence and a rich, long finish.

Organic status: not organic

What did the grape say when the elephant stepped on it? It didn't say anything. It just let out a little whine.
