Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The structure on this wine is just fine, with crisp, coastal acidity and low alcohol making for a clean, well-balanced Chard. Its weakness is in the thinness of flavor. The wine is watery, with mere traces of citrus fruits and peaches.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
You’ll find sweet and sour flavors in this wine, like in a LifeSaver lemon candy. The best part is the acidity, which is tart, and keeps the wine balanced.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Thin, dry and harsh, with cola flavors that are so thin, all you can really detect is the heat of alcohol. If you’re not fussy, it’s a basic introduction to Pinot Noir.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Raspingly dry, thick in harsh tannins, and only mildly fruity, with a trace of cherries, leather and tobacco, this rustic wine needs greasy meats and cheeses to play against.
