Los Olivos Vineyard Marsanne

Mature. At end of life but consistent.

Had a glass on open. Restrained but still excellent.

Quince, grilled pineapple, bitter lemon, banana peel, hazelnut, marzipan, yellow flowers, tea leaf, wax, cream soda, white pepper, honey. Great viscosity balanced by phenolics and a snap of acid. This will be delicious in a few more years

Great drinkable expression of two incredible grapes. white fruits, peaches, hibiscus, glycerol, arôme tertiaire de miel. 12.5% abv.

Earthy, fruity and crisp, a lovely white with food

Crushed apples and restraint #qupe #santabarbara #marsanne

Sharp, mineral, tart grapefruit, and fresh radish. Racy acid and crisp texture. Great value, age able, delicious.

Picking up these lovely honey notes, toasted almonds, citrus blossom, w. pepper and synthetic tones. Incredibly vibrant and alive on the palate and fresh.

Quite nice, dry, brighter acidity then any other M/R I've had.

From half-bottle. Mostly shut-down. Flashes of classic Marsanne. Hold for another 4-7 years. Really pretty in those glints of openness. Rebuy. Like the upside.
