Deep golden color. Wine seems very viscous and thick. Not a light white. Not sure if this wine had more primary fruit when it was young but now the fruit seems to have gravitated to the background. I get a hint of melon. Also a bit of oak but not very pronounced. Good balance between acid, fruit, and alcohol. A get a bit of heat on the finish but not overwhelming. Maybe a slight minerality on the finish as well. Very nice.

Sounds like there might be two of us who own this wine! Purchased at the tasting room in Carlton. Good typicity with a slightly viscous body and round fruit. Always enjoyable and a decent value for Rhone white here in the states.

I'm writing this note for the one person that owns this bottle on CT. Hard to believe just one, since this wine was a WineBerserker special. Day 1. Some oak. Thick golden color. Full body. Delicious and really nice. Drink this on the first day, as Day 2 the wine was tasteless. We drank this with friends who also really enjoyed this blended wine.
