Yellow in color with a golden hue.
Interesting nose with ripe citrus fruits and spices.

It's nice to see that this 7 year old French white wine is still drinking nicely. Tangy with a tart finish.
A little unbalanced and better with food.

2nd time tasting this wine, and it is as impressive as the first time. It has the aromatic brightness and tingling acidity of Albariño and the complexity and roundness of a lightly Oakes Chardonnay. Unique and delicious. For less than $15, wine can’t get any better than this.

Oct 7th, 2023Fragrant nose with peach, pineapple, orange peel, lime, honey, and chrysanthemum. Medium to full body. Vibrant and intense, soften by creamy texture which is surprising given that this did not see any oaks. Hint of sweetness but dry. Great winemaking.
70/30 Petit Courbu/Petit Manseng.
