Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a very dry, high-acid Pinot that comes across as a bit lean and angular right now, with coffee and cola flavors that just hint at cherries. But the fruit is there. Give it a year or two to settle down and express its complexity.

Made from organic grapes, this Chard has tremendously forward fruit flavors, ranging from ripe white peaches to tropical mangoes and guava. It’s also well-oaked and juicy in acids. It’s a powerhouse that, despite its age, tastes fresh and lively.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Too overtly sweet. Some wines like this are super-fruity in cherries and raspberries but finish dry. This one doesn’t, despite a scour of acidity. Feels unbalanced. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With this one you never get totally past the sulfuric, heavily buttered-up start. From there it improves a little, showing apples, spice and light pear fruit in the mouth. In the end, however, it is an overdone wine that is heavily oaked and getting old as we speak.
