[75% Roussanne, 18% Grenache Blanc, 7% Picpoul Blanc, 13.0% ABV] Color on this younger Esprit Blanc is noticeably darker, very nutty, almost sweet, aromas, rich and viscous on the palate, but lacks the amazing cut and precision of the older 2011, good balance and length, but merely good tonight. — 4 days ago

Punchy blackfruit, full-bodied, dry, pleasant finish. Nice, but no distinguishing features. Not bad at $24 CAD. — 6 years ago

Very special rose from Barossa. Savory and ripe red berry flavors and intense flavor and long lasting. Will chill it and drink more later — 6 years ago

Very pale, lurid orange. A deeply perfumed bouquet evokes mineral-accented citrus and pit fruits, along with a powerful floral overtone. Coats the palate with juicy nectarine blood orange, strawberry and lavender flavors that take a sweeter turn and tighten up on the back half. The floral note comes back strong on an impressively long, focused finish that shows excellent clarity and solid mineral thrust. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2018) — 7 years ago

I bought this cheap to splash into some braised short rib. Of course, I'll have more than the beef will.
It's good. Dusty and plenty of garrigue. Will pair well with the short rib if I can wait that long.

This is awesome. Tons of strawberry and peach on the nose with the little bit of herb. I was worried that the palate would be overly sweet, but it is absolutely not. Beautifully balanced. Probably my favorite rose so far — 7 years ago

Last of 11 purchased for a song at auction in 2015. Some bottle variation along the way and a couple ox’d, but this one was terrificl — 2 months ago

Read the hype, bought the bargain, drank it alone like a responsible adult. Too bad the 2021 is too young and tight-wound at first, but on day three it exhaled and pulled me completely inward. Magnetic. I am sold. Deep and complex, there are too many layers to name, but i immensely enjoy the fruit’s push against the savory pull. Quietly persuasive rather than flashy. — 10 months ago

This is definitely an extra dry. The champagne starts dry and finishes dry. In between there is nice green apple. A very nice drinking champagne!!! — 6 years ago

Fresh lilac and stone - a great start from the smell of things

Alpine fruit, floral tones, yet well crafted, menthol, sweet tart acidity, and fruit skin tannins. A lovely Rhône. Fantastically priced.
