Came across another case of this, so I am making this my house white this summer. Opened this bottle right off the truck, so not showing ideally. A little more mature than 2 years ago, but by no means over the hill. Floral bouquet with stone fruits on the palate. There is a honey infused waxiness typical of older Marsanne/Roussane blends too.

Agree with T_Moderne below, but could use a touch more acidity. Interesting and lively wine however, and quite enjoyable. Definitely would see it out again.

Pop and pour. Initially tasted at room temperature and then again when slightly chilled. Light, pale golden color. Nose offers some un-ripe white peach and floral notes and honey comb. The first striking thing is the mouhtfeel. Lots of glycerin and texture. Stone fruit and almonds on the palate, with a light manzanilla sherry note. Nice. 50/50 blend of Roussanne/Marsanne.

Fantastic value from last bottle. Similar notes to previous CT notes. I thought there was plenty of acidity
