This was a nice, big Chard, buttered popcorn notes, lovely! Overall I’m most impressed with the brands focus on finding the most ethical practices available, that they are industry leaders and that they ensure accountability and transparency through independent ethical standard accreditors.

Hard to go past a lovely chilled Chardonnay on a sunny afternoon, and I was fortunate enough to enjoy this lovely drop with friends on such an afternoon. Everyone enjoyed it, fruity and easy to drink. I love the Biodynamic farming practices, and a company wide commitment to farming and producing in a sustainable way.
