About the wine
.
- Easy drinking and refreshing with just some light oak, this Chard shows off Jim's years of experience tinkering with Chardonnay in big wineries like La Crema.
- Jim used 100% Manton Valley Chard. You probably never heard of Manton Valley because the US government only JUST recognized it as one of America's great viticultural areas. You gave Jim the funding to use this fruit before it was an official AVA region, so you got a real deal.
- You need a balanced Chard in your life because it's rich enough for food but light enough to drink on its own. Guaranteed to get people sipping.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jim Olsen
Years Angel-funded: 2012-18
- Jim didn't just study wine at the University of California, he taught about it for 30 years.
- Before Naked, he worked mainstream jobs like La Crema and held quirkier side gigs - like growing Portuguese grapes in Californian soil.
- Jim spent decades in California cellars. At Naked, he found the most surprising deals for Angels - delighting you with Winemaker Fantasy wines (like White Barbera!) as a true champion of the rare varieties and vineyards in the state.
