Top Notes For
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.
