2017 Cuvee Barberini. it lost a little bit of. It’s like acidic life but still really really nice. lots of Stony mineral reality. a bit of wood showing with loss of fruit. But it’s still quite interesting.

Great label art.
Pleasantly tart, mineral and dry. With air, pineapple, vanilla, some spice emerge, great density and length. Top qpr.

Vintage 2012 / mineral tones in smell, a shy impression of citrus. well balanced wine, powerfull, bitters overshadow the acidity. very powerful. #chateauneufdupapeblanc Paired with scallop shells and redfish in bell peppersauce. Fine luncheon.

Probably consumed too young but showed beautiful fruit and balance w/out being too rich or cloying.

Vintage 2012 - I keep trying but white Rhône is not my type of wine... it’s powerfull, but misses finesse in my opinion

Muted and thin, then comes on like gangbusters. Fruit exploding on the mid palette. Chewy acids give the finish a long deep impression. Surprising. A magic act.
