Caramel, butterscotch, burnt sugar, faint lychee/ripe apple, slight flint on the nose.
Tasted this at Sandhi’s tasting room in Lompoc and fell in love with this taut, flinty, mineral pracific sea breeze driven chard.
Acid remains racy and a pleasurable line of intensity on the palate. Fruit notes of green apple and the freshness of blades of grass are now subtly, beautifully fading into an after-the-rain-like petrichor that is lovely.
A flintiness handshakes a butteriness in terms of front texture and finish, lingering for a while. Secondary and tertiary notes of age are alive and brimming. Almondy.
Good. Great. Some more please.

Full bodied Chardonnay with melted butter on the nose, balanced, smooth. Apricots, lemon on palate. Nice.

Supple, round nose of luscious stone fruits and light butterscotch. Long lingering zippy mouthfeel with a strong presence of wet stones and lemon curd.
