Stanley’s notes: This wine reminds me so much of Chapoutier’s Le Méal Blanc. Although it has no Marsanne in it, it carries a great waxy undertone on the nose with subtle green almonds and limestone at the base. Up front you get white jasmine, peach, pineapple, and mandarin aromas. These are just the subtleties of the wine. The true core of the wine is a monstrosity. Dense, concentrated and authoritative, it’s no summertime sipper. This wine came into existence to make its presence known, and that’s just what it does. High intensity on the entry and midpalate. Full bodied with seamless round texture and a great support of focused acidity to carry the concentrated fruit flavors. The finish is very long with subtle tannin and minerality. There’s tons of depth on this wine even at this youthful stage. I can see this wine easily holding up for the next 7 - 10 years or longer, but if you’re impatient like me I would recommend treating it like you would a young red wine. Decant and enjoy at room temperature. We’ve found it delivering promise after three hours of air. It’s currently 10:33 pm on Monday August 28th. I’m writing these notes based on a TOP L’Aventure white that we double decanted at 12pm the day before
