A sound bottle, much tastier than the reviews here imply. Round on the palate but decent acidity for the variety, notes of stone fruit -- yellow peach, nectarine, and even a little toast coming through with some air time. This was quite nice

Deep straw with just a hint off toffee brown. Waxy & poached fruit. Slightest hint of almond seed. Fully. Hollow. Phenolic. It’s hard and lacks fresh fruit. A tough drink.

Bright yellow. Waxy citrus and honeysuckle character on the nose, which carries through on the palate. Slightly clipped finish, maybe the acid just pokes out a bit? Would like to see this in a year or two, I think it might resolve into something that would score higher.

Découvertes en Vallée du Rhône; 4/15/2019-4/16/2019 (Ampuis, Mauves and Tain-l'Hermitage): Walk around tasting talking with the producers, brief note. So much more here vs the Marsanne just tasted. Good overall potential.
