Friday, June 29, 2012 - San Diego WineSpectator.com Offline, 6/29/2012 (The University Club, San Diego): 15.8% alcohol. 39% roussanne, 31% viognier, 30% chardonnay. Clear light straw yellow. Grassy, cauliflower puree, acacia flower, butterscotch, baked white peach tart. Really not as enjoyable as some of those descriptors may imply. I struggled to make sense of this, and do not see Parker's 95 points at all. Maybe it's just my general antipathy toward white Rhones, but I found this to be rather graceless. It placed second-lowest among eight wines tonight.
