Friday, November 14, 2014 - Just because! Another amazing white from sqn….37% Chardonnay, 31% Roussanne, 16% Petite Manseng and 16% Viognier…..brilliant yellow, green, slight cloudy color…..bowl full of white Rhone goodness nose! Does need some opening to calm the acidic zip….creams up nicely with peach, apricot, pear, grilled pineapple, orange marmalade.…..to go along with that huge burst of fresh citrus, sqn pop rocks in the mouth! Then the exotics come out….white honey butter, smoked honeycombs, lemon wax, crushed rocks, white flowers and honeysuckle florals galore! Very light handed…more freshness than richness(for sqn) but still full bodied and in perfect balance. Will love to see this one in 10+ years…but that's going to be tuff…because it's SO damn tasty now!!
