"You may want to try the Hope and Grace Chard. It is aged in 12 Months on Low Intensity French Oak . However, it is very good. Buehler also makes a few Chards. The Russian River Reserve is aged in 40% new french oak. They also have a Russian River that is steel only. you need to get the Reserve to get the oaked version. Hope this helps"
