Green-gold. Leesy aromas of pear skin, baking spices, orange pith and brown butter, with a suggestion of white flowers. Big, rich and sappy, but with a firm spine of acidity adding focus to the vivid orchard fruit and candied citrus flavors. Picks up weight with air, finishing with superb length and lingering notes of smoke, bitter citrus and minerals. This is still pretty young. Two-thirds of this fruit, which is all Wente clones according to Andy Smith, came from the Ritchie vineyard.

closed nose at first (maybe to cold). Opened up to a great drink, nice buttery taste, good finish. It is what you want from a good Caly Chard.
