Fleur Blanche Châteauneuf-du-Pape Clairette Blanche 2016

@Delectable Wine, this is 100% Clairette Blanche.
N:Waxy Asian pears, oranges, white flowers. Not perfume or talc, a straight shot. A bit of sand and sweatiness.
P: Honeysuckle, chamomile, luscious onthe palate and bright. I know/see there have been detractors but I also know of a fan club, count us in. 7 yrs certainly doesn’t hurt. It has that great waxy thing of the Rhone. So glad it was recommended.

Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc White Rhone Blend 2016

E’ molto interessante. A mia moglie piace molto. Sarebbe raro di trovare Chataunuf di pape blanc. Ha il corpo abbastanza, allo stesso tempo assagio l’accodita abbastanza. E equibilibrato. Ho avuto altri quattro bottelie. — 6 years ago

Pessac-Léognan Sauvignon Blanc 2007

WSET L3 course in progress, any corrections in my reading are welcome. Cheers!

👁 pale golden

👃clean, pronounced intensity, complex intense flavor of passion fruit, overripe lemon, honeysuckle with hint of vanilla toast and honey. This wine is fully developed.

👅Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol, medium(+) body. Pronounced intensity of passion fruit and ripe lemon, dried apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, brioche hint of kerosine. Long finish.

🎯 outstanding quality, can drink now but has potential for aging (should survive few more years)

Côte du Py Morgon Gamay 2017

Black fruit aromas but more red fruit and earthy flavors on the palate. A solid pick for $15. — 5 years ago

Gigondas Red Rhone Blend 2015

Gérald Lafont and Baptiste Olivier are known throughout France as two of the Rhône Valley's top oenologists. A blend of 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah, dark fruit and flinty aromas. On the palate blackberry and cranberry flavors with floral spice tones wrapped in smooth tannins. Medium+ finish ending with s bright mineral character. Nice. Tasting Sample. — 7 years ago
