Singing. This is just terrific. Wow. 11 years in. On open a bit flat and then... Boom!

Wow. Wasn't able to post a picture with the wine because we drank it all too fast. Amazing deep golden color; great oily texture on the palate with a complex array of flavors. Just confirms for me that when you let great roussannes age, the wines become SO much better. Fantastic!

Golden straw color. Great tropical nose. Pineapple, peach, orange marmalade. Nice acidity. Time has mellowed this out nicely. Just shows that patience works with these whites. 2009 vintage.
