100% old-vine Marsanne from the Le Méal lieu dit which is predominately south facing. A wine of beauty and balance with notes of yellow flowers, wet stone and honey suckle. Surprisingly fresh for a 2007. Super delicious with monkfish, sweet potato, leek, and winter truffle. Drink now through 2037.

Regardless of the erosion in the vineyards we are celebrating the near 3 inches of rain in Paso Robles and the central coast! Can't celebrate without an awesome Marsanne! Great stones, honeyed citrus.

Amazingly fresh and vivid. Seems at least 5 (or 10?) years younger….!!
One of the most impressive examples of how White Hermitage could age.
Marvelous…!!! 🤪

Really fresh core in the nose and palate. I've been put off by young white Rhone before (overly rich for my palate) but tasting this with age is a true revelation tonight.

Leaps and bounds better than the last bottle from the case but still in a sleepy spot.
