Golden hue, nose of ripe pineapples and oak, this is a big cali chard with lots of fruit and butter flavors. Creamy and pretty smooth and long finish. The acidity was there but it was a bit flabby...despite that a pleasurable bottle of wine. Not sure why the drinking window is showing as 2010 end...this will drink well for at least another couple of years.

Medium/light yellow, nose of pear, lemon, and oak. Very rich and creamy. Not right for the grilled fish, needed more acid, but my wife loved it.

Solid as always Lewis, ripe and full, perhaps missing a tad of punch. Outstanding partee wine
