Light gold in colour with a medium to medium+ intense nose.
A solid Chard from Napa that's at the $20 range
Positives: This wine features mild toasted oak, lemon rind, green apple, light buttered popcorn, grapefruit with a hint of pith, guava and shale. Medium+ body with good acidity & a long length.
Negatives: There’s some heat from the 13.5% alcohol.
Drink now or in the next 3 years on its own or pair it with chicken Parmesan.
