A stunning blend of Chardonnay, Viognier and Sauvignon showcasing the best of each grape. Crisp acidity, gorgeous floral, peach aroma with elderflower, orange blossom, tangerine, Meyer lemon, green apple, ripe pear, chalk, flint, crushed fresh herbs (thyme and sage) and a hint of oaky vanilla. Great length and for all its opulence, is elegant with great finesse.

Bright Meyer lemon cream, underripe pineapple, white peach and a touch of lime pulp. The mid palate and finish is a little off. It becomes angular and the alcohol is just a tad hot in the back throat. As you continue to dip it, a distinct ripe banana quality surfaces. It finishes with a bit of cream and chalkiness.

2012 vintage. White florals, citrus oil, pear, brioche, new oak, honey and caramelized sugar. Full bodied. Crisp acid. Richer finish. Not shy. Enjoyable. Good value.

Smooth crisp nice white blend. Change of pace from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Nothing stands out.

2018. Golden yellow color. Light salty aroma. Nice buttery Chardonnay texture with added tartness. Yellow fruit like apricots. Light oakiness and minerally finish.

ほどよくタンニンが感じられ、少し重たい印象。お気に入りの一本。

Vanilla, lemon, mango, honey, and pineapple. A little new world influence.
