Thursday, January 14, 2021 - A nice comparison with the steelier, more serious Guigal St Joseph blanc from the same vintage. 95% Marsanne the rest Roussanne. Light gold colour in the glass. This is richer and more expressive straight out of the gate; Fresh pineapple, apricot, honeysuckle, white flowers and blood orange on the attractive nose. This saw some oak during elevage and it comes across nicely in the rich, creamy textured palate along with beautiful acidity and well defined fruit. The finish is surprisingly long and poised - very good.
Drinking well now.
