Fantastic body, perfect with ham, meat. — 2 months ago
Where do I begin… this wine is stunning.
It is positively golden in color with concentrated notes of caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, creme brûlée, dried apricot, yellow apple,peach, nectarine, yellow cherry, kumquat, baked quince, lemon curd, honeysuckle, butter cream, lavender,, dried herbs, fennel, beeswax, honey, chamomile, hazelnut, praline, honey, & wet stones…
It’s textured!!! Waxy & mouth coating, full bodied, round, & opulent.
Alcohol is high at 14.5% ABV — it’s warming but balanced and integrated with the deeply rooted flavors and elevated, vibrant acidity. Yum!!!!!

Pale lemon in color.
Strong nose and medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing limes, grapefruits, gooseberries, earth and spices.
Long finish with limes and almonds.
This is a delicious Bandol white. Rich, tangy and fruit forward. Has a New world Sauvignon Blanc feel.
Expressive and spicy. Complex and nicely balanced. Really enjoyed the nose here.
Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.
A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.
A blend of 60% Clairette, 30% Ugni Blanc with 10% Vermentino and Bourboulenc. Grapes are handpicked, and aged for 10 months in used oak barrels.
12.5% alcohol by volume .

- 38% Viognier 32% Grenache Blanc 22% Marsanne 8% Roussanne. Nose has wet hay, marzipan, fresh and fermented pear, wet limestone. Fairly intense but lovely and balanced in the mouth. A bit of unripe pear fruit, grapefruit zest, loads of stony minerality taking over as the finish progresses, with a nice bitter prickle at the end. Very nice acids. I like this a lot. — 8 days ago
90% Marsanne and 10% Roussanne, aged 30 months in new oak. Some will say this is over the hill, others will say it needs hours of air. It’s undeniably an eclectic and intriguing wine. Honey and toasted nuts. Rich and full with an unctuous sherry finish. Paired with chicken liver mousse. — 2 months ago

Wow. The timing and oxygen on this bottle requires precision.
At opening there is some alcohol and weirdness that needs to blow off.
Within about 20-30 mins - the wine settles down and then it delivers just as you’d expect. Beautiful flavors.
Leave it out an hour and it begins to turn a bit. — 13 days ago
