Monthly Tuesday group #008: Southern Rhône White. (By PV): In the bouquet yellow tropical fruits, hay, vanilla and some smoke. On the palate a high viscosity with yellow fruits like peach, ripe yellow apple and banana. Some herbs, mild citrus and pleasant bitterness in the finish. Really nice wine with a good length.

Nose: On the initial attack, a funky butter barnyard. This was soon followed by citrus, cream, lemongrass, vanilla, limestone, chalk and overall mineral notes. On the secondary aromas, there were hints of banana, nectarine peel and toast.
Palette: Lemon cream(great texture), spice, custard and mineral/limestone. Lingered a good deal on the finish.
Overall: Really like this wine. Good combination of primary mineral and secondary fruit, with good creaminess and silky texture.

Very clean, elegant palate of stone fruits, pear, and a lot of mineral/stone. Very slightly marked by the alcohol -- I'd rate higher without the heat. Drink up.
