PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs -translucent pale yellow -quite expressive viognier-like floral honeysuckle fresh ripe honeydew melon -med acidity, med- weight with med+ concentration, excellent minerality blossoms after an hour overlying some white fruit/floral elements, moderately long finish without any detectable oak -pure and unadorned, takes the best of both its viognier and rousanne components, very pleasant now, no idea on aging potential but suspect it is best drunk young

Friday lunch at Birba with Tim (Birba, SF): Super floral - to the point of fresh roses, and even some white pepper / smoke. Just Medium acidity. Elevated alcohol (14% - correct). Touch of phenolic bitterness.
This is pretty good stuff! Score: 8.5
