Though barrel fermented and given eight months sur lie, this does not show excessive oak flavoring. Rather it has intense, forward fruit, emphasis on lime-driven citrus, accented with honeysuckle. It’s still young and sharp, and finishes with a bit of heat but with food it settles down and works very well.

The blend is 50% Cab Sauvignon, 25% each Merlot and Cab Franc, with a splash of Malbec. Aromas seem to shoot up from the glass, rich and chocolaty, followed by rather firm, tightly constructed fruit. The flavor components of berry, currant and cherry are expertly interwoven, well-balanced and smooth.

This is a creamy, textural Chard. Meyer lemon, lime and grapefruit dominate the mid-palate, and there is racy acid underpinning it. Medium body, medium length, no excessive oak; a good effort all around.
