Tried last night:
1. OjaiVnyds Chard SolomonHillsVnyd/SantaMariaVlly (14.0%) OakView 2006: Light gold color; strong melony/Chard/lemony some celery seed rather smokey/toasty/Fr.oak fairly perfumed bit complex nose; fairly tart strong melony/Chard/celery seed/lemony some toasty/smokey/oak light nutty/aged quite complex lovely flavor; very long/lingering strong lemony/celery seed/melony/Chard very fresh some smokey/toasty/Fr.oak/tobaccoy fairly tart bit complex finish; still quite youthful and will go another 10 yrs; a lovely lithe/bracing/wirey old style Ojai Chard but absolutely delicious. $30.00

aromatic ripe/melony/Chard/peach light vanilla/oak flavor; very long very floral/aromatic
melony/ripe/Chard/peach light oak finish; levely balance and great aromatics almost like
a Riesling; great buy at $30.00

This wine seems to be aging at a glacial pace.
