TASTING NOTE: Only 10% of the oak aging is conducted in new barrels for this Chard due to the hot vintage. It has a highly expressive nose of green apple, mineral, pear, subtle oak and a touch of citrus. It has lovely texture on the palate, beautiful balance and poise, with bright orchard fruits, lemon chiffon, seamless spice, swirling minerals and a clean vibrant finish. Fabulous wine. Score - 92 (Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com, Dec. 4, 2017) |
