  Vin Chicago Pickup Party & Tasting (Seven Bridges Golf Club): Retailer tasting. Nearly half marsanne, about a quarter roussanne and the rest grenache blanc and picpoul. White fruit with an underlying earthy/soily note. Orchard fruit on the palate. Good. $17.99.

  A joyful little natural wine. Aromas of tropical fruits - papaya, lychee - as well as golden apple, with a touch of funk and minerality. The flavor is lush, especially as it warms, with bruised apple, pineapple, and papaya, and solid but not overwhelming acid throughout.

  Lovely, just lovely! Broc really nailed this 2018 vintage - not that previous vintages haven’t also been delicious, but the concentration and depth of flavour, the silky lush mouthfeel here at just 12% is simply astonishing. There’s no lack of freshness, mind you; though tropical notes dominate, the wine still carries plenty of crisp apple, green melon, and white pepper notes combined with perfect acidity to keep things balanced. Ginger, honey, cinnamon, and herbal tea all made appearances throughout tasting; some sips conjured up childhood memories of eating delicious canned peaches/mandarins. The fun with this wine didn’t stop over two days - it was rocking the whole time. No doubt about it, the QPR with this is outstanding!
