Consistent with previous note. Needs to open up a bit before drinking. First glass was tart, but delicious from then out.

Maybe just a little more acid on the finish than I like., but still very solid.

Nice well balanced chard. Citrus with a hint of lemon. A little too acidic for my taste.

Wonderful peach / apricot nose. Crisp acidic fruit tastes with a bit of a tart finish. Drinking well now. Consistent tastes from beginning to end of bottle.

Chardonnay Symposium- Santa Maria Valley. Notes of melon and lime with rich spice. Big fruit on the palate retaining decent acid and balance. Full finish.
