點擊次數：1271

Getting pretty old for a Chard, this wine has lost much of its primary fruit and is turning earthy and fragile. There’s an old-lees taste, for aficionados of slightly mature whites. ——S.H.(12/15/2005)—— 83

If you like pina coladas and getting caught in the—oh…I mean…coladas and ripe banana, caramel and pear aromas and flavors, then this wine delivers. There’s an undeniable coconut quality here, and nice acid zip that keeps the fruit in the mix. The oak tannins need a bit of time to smooth out—they’re a little edgy on the back end. ——W.E.(7/1/2001)—— 89
