Citrus, lemon rind, some herbaceousness. A bit watery/not enough acidity for my taste. Perhaps drank too cold? Other tasters said it improved with air, which agrees with my limited experience with Tercero whites.
light straw color, nose of light petrol, palate light with lemon rind/bright citrus, medium-rich body. Overall I would say it was a subtle, balanced wine, still pleasant though I wished for some more vibrancy/exuberance to the flavors. 89 pts

Light straw color. Lemon rind and lychee nose. Medium bodied, soft entry of wet stone, then sugared grapefruit, a bit of heat, decent acid, and a nice long finish. Pleasant enough, but lacked an interesting middle.

Another great value for a complex Rhone white. Really was showing its best just below room temp. Lovely texture provided by Roussanne and snappy acidity from the Grenache Blanc.

Very nice complex white Rhone blend. Larry knows what he's doing. Spectacular with food. Great price point. I could drink this with my snack at 4 pm everyday and never get sick of it.

Perfect for sitting on the patio and sipping this chilled. Lots of tropical fruit and some lychee (don't know if that is a tropical fruit). Long finish. Great value.

Pale yellow color, even a little bronze hue. Excellent aromas and a whiff of honey. Palate of pearl, med+ acidty, great complexity, and nice balance. Long finish and a ridiculous QPR for a white rhone blend. I guess I'm a sucker for all things rhone.

Is a blend of Rousanne, Viognier, and Grenache Blanc, making for a very adaptable wine. The Viognier gives it some nice sweet, tropical fruit and lychee nut aspects, plus nice florals. The Rousanne adds some body, and a bit glycerin aspect, a bit of umpf. The Grenache Blanc gives it some added lift and crispness that helps with food. Good wine for pre, during, and after meal enjoyment. Nice first outing on this wine.

A very nice Rhone white blend. Floral notes with a medium body and excellent acidity.

Floral with good acidity. Drinks easy. Not overly complex, but well above the norm.

Another Tercero white with tons of flavor that are, for me, more enjoyable at room temperature. Good stuff.

In a really nice place, with the various components blending seamlessly to provide a glycerined texture and balanced, tropical flavors.

Not a light a crisp white, by any measure, but well-balanced. Full tropical flavors. Becomes more expressive as it warms up.
