  Pretty yellow-gold-green color with a nice sheen. Nose of spring pollen and lemon-scented bar soap. Strong minerality and body from the Grenache. Strong lemon rind With a really delicious finish that almost reminds me of an egg custard.

  Vibrant yellow-green. Very dry nose of ....well, dry white wine. Quite thick for a white, with lots of character. Hard to describe but good.

  Peach, citrus and wet stone with good acidity and floral notes. Great summertime wine. Good QPR

  The tasting notes for this one cover a very wide range - but would not think there is much bottle variation, screwcap and all....
  
  For the money, I thought this a truly excellent wine. Simple, yes, but simply delicious - off-dry and a very pleasing acid/mineral balance. Grenache, chardonnay and marsanne. Floral peach nose, palate of yellow, orange, white fruits.

  Comes across, not surprisingly, like a Spanish white... minerality on the palate, and a very clean finish. Blind tasting pointed the wife toward Basque or Catalunya... I give her credit for coming pretty darn close.
  
  Would buy this one again - a good, everyday wine with an array of light foods or just on a warm afternoon.
