Light gold in colour with a medium intense nose.
A Chard that goes better with food then by itself.
Positives: This wine has light toasted oak with lemon, green apples, mandarin, pear, some guava and limestone. Medium body with good acidity and a long length.
Negatives: A slight bitter aftertaste.
Interesting Point: I loved, loved, loved the 2010 vintage, unfortunately this one doesn’t measure up to that year. Use the smaller cooler climate Chard glass.
Drink now or over the next 4 years on its own or pair it with Cornish hen.
