  Drinks like a big buttery Napa Chardonnay, think Lewis or something similar. Very good but not my style, rich and a bit flabby…rubber notes and buttered popcorn, jellybeans vanilla bean, just not enough acidity at all for me, still very tasty

  No formal notes taken, so this is from memory. Gorgeous aromas of honey suckle and wildflowers. Big in the mouth. Flavors are nice but could have used a little more acidity and a little less wood.

  Concentration is there, oak touch is not prominent fortunately, 93 because there is no edge like floral notes.

  Parents wedding anniversary 2024; 3/22/2024-3/25/2024: Parents anniversary supper, 8 courses, 7 wines.
  
  Wine 3: Guigal Condrieu La Doriane 2020.
  
  Paired with brown buttered scallops.
  
  My white of the night! Golden color. The nose was so sexy on this wine! Rich candied Pineapple, honeysuckle, acacia and white florals, pine tar and some vanilla. On the palate this has tons of tropical fruits, pineapple, green guava, acacia, again with coniferous notes and some crushed stone. It really coats the mouth with a long finish! This is beautiful now and I'm sure it could handle some aging.

  What a wonderful wine! Golden color. Superbly balanced. Fresh, yet low on acidity. Taste of honey and a bit of oak.
