Initially intense in caramel and salty toffee, this wine offers a vibrant strip of acidity that provides backbone and levity to the body and oak. Floral and fruity in yuzu, it presents itself in a big style, but ultimately finishes with balance.

There are lots of bells and whistles on this Chard, including partial malolactic fermentation and aging in 25% new French oak barrels. The result is a creamy, rich wine, with honeyed pineapple, tropical fruit, buttered toast and caramel flavors.
