Mar 10th, 2020I tell ya what, this is a lot more interesting than the Roussanne that we drank a couple weeks ago from Paso Robles. This has the acid that the Villa Creek lacked. There was a nice mix of slightly underripe pineapple, orange peel and honeysuckle. This probably needs a few years in the bottle to be honest. Still, pretty enjoyable and I’ll definitely keep this on my shortlist of northern Rhône whites to keep an eye out for.

Jun 20th, 2019L'équilibre n'y est pas tout à fait. Manque d'élan, un peu mou. Parfois, la texture joue le rôle de colonne dans ces vins blancs rhodaniens. Pas cette fois.

Dec 13th, 2020Not much to say other then ordinary and disappointing, pineapple and exotic fruit, no premox, but flat and very forgettable.
Très ordinaire et désappointé par cette bouteille et cet achat, sans âme, sans éclat et sans intérêt malheureusement.
