This is a beautiful wine. If only I hadn’t been such a knucklehead and put it in the freezer four nights ago only to forget about it. Huge surprise that after such abuse it was delicious and seemed no worse for wear. Replete with notes of honey, toast, bay and mint, with a rich and luscious mouthfeel and a pleasing streak of acidity. Texturally and aromatically, like a bright and tart Rhone white.

Pretty crazy wine. From the French side of the Pyrenees and based on 2 grapes I had never heard of before. Crazy combination of silky ash meets a heavily citrus yet old white burgundy, which sounds awful but was really interesting . Don’t know if I would buy 12 of these but as a one off this was cool.
