Golden yellow in colour. Rich and lush with dried apricots, quince, orange zest, pear, some vanilla and honeycomb. Almost slightly oxidative notes with great balance and very good drinkability. This was very delicious at almost room temperature
Light yellow color, much fresher compared to the 2009 version. There’s good complexity here, a mélange of various stone fruits, minerals. Still a wine of richness, but that’s the nature of the Marsanne from the Northern Rhône. This is a great wine, needs to paired with food.

Wow quite unique. Vivid dark gold in color. Intense nose of ripe yellow plum, vanilla, mineral, nuts. Very concentrated full bodied intense palate. Long oily finish. This style may not be for everyone but this is an amazing wine.

This wasn't what I was expecting. Very much like a Viognier but with a hint of dry sherry. It opened up quickly and was very good quality. Quite hard to pair this but it worked well with a mild Indonesian salmon curry.

Lovely bottle of wine. Rich and delicious but dry. I enjoyed every glass.
