  shared with pat at selkirk manor. celebrating respite from covid-19 pandemic before new variants take hold. i continue to prune the cellar of bottles with past due drink by dates. was holding on to this bottle as a souvenir of our dinner with the winemaker at Nicholas Restaurant. I am not aware of any other california winemaker growing these grapes or making this blend. 50% grenache blanc, 45% rousanne, 5% marsanne. an interesting change up from what we typically drink. the wine shows a nuanced assemblage of multiple flavor characteristics ranging from sweet (honey) to tart (semi ripe peach). demands careful attention. a great summer drink to have with light fair. would buy again.

  A very tasty blend of white Rhône varietals. Nose had notes of butter cream, honeysuckle, white peaches, and tangerine. The palate had very nicely balanced acidity, with flavors of stone fruits, nectarine, lightly toasted yeast, and a touch of honey. It has a wonderfully rounded mouthfeel, and a pleasing lingering finish. Great stuff!
