Pale in color with a nice mild apple/pear nose. On the mid palate the wine displays all the varietal fruit notes, apple and pear to match the nose. The wine displays little to no creamyness and little to no vanilla. This is more of a fruit forward, clean, lightly oaked chard. If that’s how you prefer your chards then this is a good one with vibrant fruit coming through. On the medium length finish the wine’s acidity, and minerality come through, it’s nice and dry. Personally I love the oak … I give it an 87-88.
