I quite like this Chard, The nose is fantastic and mineral, followed by good acidity and minerality in the mouth. There are some wines , which finish very quickly and this is one of them (I need to stop drinking it otherwise the whole bottle would be gone:-)). I wonder how many people would guess on blind tasting this bottle not to be Chablis.
