Subtly toasty on the nose, adding bits of apple and peach flavors to the mix. This vintage of Felton Road’s Chard isn’t as rich or weighty as some years, but its quality still shines through on the bright, citrusy finish. The 2005 will be imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd. ——J.C.(5/1/2006)—— 90

Nutty and toasty, but also profoundly fruity, loaded with ripe citrus fruit and peaches. The midpalate is rich and shows excellent fat, while the finish brings all the elements together in a long, tart finale laced with grapefruit and smoke.——J.C.(4/1/2004)—— 90

This is a big, ripe wine, yet it showcases cool-climate-influenced citrus fruits. Lemon-lime, ginger and piecrust open to sweet citrus and vanilla, with just a touch of butter. A hint of grapefruit pith on the finish provides additional structure. ——J.C.(7/1/2002)—— 88

Very fragrant, loaded with toasty, creme brulee aromas and followed by oranges, vanilla and custard. A big, ripe wine with some oatmeal character that finishes spicy and complex.——J.C.(5/1/2001)—— 90
