Lovely straw colour with some greenness to it. Nice citrus , pear notes and nuttiness on the nose. Great depth of flavour and complexity including nuttiness, caramel, pear and citrus while being very fresh. Great length with nice acidity on the finish.
Bright gold in colour with medium+ nose.
Positives: Firstly, I like to point out that this is a big complex chard with 13.5% alcohol. This is not a typo, yes 13.5%, not 14.5% or 15.5%. Still can't believe it & thank you Brajkovich family. On with the notes. Classic chard notes tilting more toward citric flavours with minerality & don't expect it to be really buttery. Pity. Medium to medium+ body, good acidity with long length.
Negatives: Too much alcohol. Oh wait wrong wine lol.
Interesting Point: Don't over chill it as you'll loose all the complexity that this wine has to offer.
Drink now on its own or cellar it for up to 5 years. Pair it with my wife's saffron seared scallops. Really you should try it.
