Beautiful aromas leap forth, loaded with melon, papaya, lychee, nectarine, white tea, honeysuckle, lemongrass and a hint of cilantro and mineral. On the palate bright, refreshing and packed with flavors of lemongrass, white tea, melon, papaya, honeysuckle, salt water taffy, lychee, nectarines and a dash of spice and mineral. This ripe style has a lingering, pleasant finish thats is moderate+ in intensity. Well textured.

Aromatically very light with mellon, bosc pear, citrus, lychee and papaya scents with wax, honeysuckle and light pink peppercorn notes. The palate delivers bright clean acidity with a creamy texture and flavors of honeydew, yellow apple, white cherry, honeysuckle, meyer lemon and mineral with a touch of spice in the background.

A good value Grenache Blanc. 100% stainless, no ML. Some deviation from that might add some complexity, even if partial. A great value, not sure if I agree with hanging onto 4-6 years, or that it would gain much, but should have enough acid to.
Pale golden color. Effusive nose of red apple, melon, stone fruits. Pleasant mouth that delivers pear, citrus, a trace of minerality (some barrel aging could draw out). Good acidity.
Easy drinker, would buy because of the price point, not an overly complex GB.

Golden yellow, fresh, crisp, a little creamy. Some citrus, pear, lime, melon. Versatile easy pairing wine. I'd buy it again.
