Short 15 minute decant makes all the difference. A steal at $18. Wow. This was an Ian Cauble SommSelect selection and he once again nailed it. Perfect summer wine.

Not as lean and lively as the 2017, but still lots to love here.

so happy with this one! what a perfect summer white wine. very understated, a balanced, softer lemon flavor, very chalky, a touch of salt, and just such a nice mouthfeel. really does taste like the cool mountain air (or maybe i have been staring at the label too much 😂). great rec from sommselect.

A very nice mountain white from Savoie. Really delicious with incredible acidity and a very nice salinity on the finish. Very precise.
