Super dense, thick and waxy in texture. Peach, quince, roasted hazelnuts, honeysuckle, hints of earth, long finish.

Fresh and distinct. White flower and bright corn. Good acidity.

Easily the best white I’ve had and top ~10 or ~20 overall. So much going on in every sensory category. And this is only a young adult.

Unfortunately this has gone past it's prime. I liked it because it was old.

2007 : un des meilleurs vins blancs du Rhône ! Réglisse très prononcé ! Belle longueur complexité certaine. Fraîcheur incroyable en bouche amertume positive ! Excellente découverte !
