  January 3, 2018 - This was a big wine - rich with waxy fruits, deep color, great mouth feel. Some thought it was a chardonnay it had so much body but was more stone fruit focused and lacked any hint of sweetness.

  November 10, 2017 - I've always liked this Grenache, Marsanne, Roussanne Viognier blend - the cepage changes each year - in 2011 55% Marsanne, 20% Grenache Blanc, 15% Roussanne and 10% Viognier apparently.
  
  Plenty of time in hand and enjoyable in the way I'd hope for but with an unexpected and persistent bitter finish, hence the lower score than anticipated. Some way off the excellent 2010.

  November 26, 2015 - A pleasant quaff. Good balance of fruit and acidity. Versatile with food or by itself. Not a wine to ponder over just fun to drink.

  June 3, 2015 - An outstanding buy--floral, complex and rich without being unctuous

  April 24, 2015 - Nice full bodied white with plenty of character and structure. The nose was plesant, but not overly expressive - citrusy and floral. The palette came through with tropical and pollen notes. The texture is silky and smooth leading to a lingering finish excorted by stone laden lemon curd. Very Chardonnay-like in palette and texture. Outstanding value.
