J.L. Chave Sélection Hermitage Blanche Marsanne Roussanne 2016

Opened about 30 minutes prior to dinner but no decant. Served slightly chilled. The 2016 “Blanche” pours a deep straw color with medium viscosity. Developing with notes of ripe stone fruit, tropical fruit, nutmeg, white pepper, minerals and cotton candy. On the palate, the wine is dry with lower acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is medium+. This is a wine of impeccable texture to match the king crab legs with dinner. Drink now through 2031. — 44 minutes ago

When these are on, like tonight, it is magic. These go places other whites don’t, esp in years like 2015. — 18 days ago

Honest, rustic Crozes though there are plenty other examples of N Rhône Syrah I’d choose over this, and at a better price point. — a month ago
