A big oaky, buttery, complex Chard with a long finish. Vanilla, pineapple, cinnamon, pear nectar, ripe peach, ripe apricot, clove, minerals, and white pepper. Medium plus body, high alcohol, high acid, and a long, long zippy finish. Thirteen years later, and this white is still a powerhouse that would hold up to steak. Not a light sipper, so match with food.

A bit deeper golden hued than the non-reserve bottling. The wine shows melon skin, stone fruit and a bit of cream pie. Just the slightest hint of butter and a bit more oak than the other bottle. Great wine.

Perfect balance of oak and some light fruit. Pineapple, and other ripe fleshy fruit.
