One of the best finds of this trip to the Rhône. Incredible density, purity & freshness.

Hazy appearance, medium+ gold, super clean, good intensity nose, orange marmalade, herbs, white flowers, just enough acidity & body... In Panamá one'd say "belleza"

Nose has a lovely wet stone minerality along with creamy but pithy honeydew melon and sweet guava rich and honey'd. Palate has a great mineral weight with good depth of yellow and even light tropical fruit, light touch of tannin on the finish.

This is a beautiful White Rhone!
But…. First signs of oxidation are peaking through.
So… drink and enjoy them now if you got some.

Another nicely aged bottle. Prominent nose of minerals, stones and white flowers. Great body of acids and secondary flavors of resolved fruits and long length that's floral.
