Honestly, I had two assumptions before I drank this wine: it will no longer be fresh and it will be heavier as a roussanne/marsanne/ clairette blend. I was wrong - twice. It remained fresh, and is mosty grenache blanc (60%), with clairette, roussanne and some viognier. The result is a slightly thinner nose, more diverse fruit, and a lean spine with stone fruit around it. This adds an unanticipated complexity that outweighs an initial urge to swirl to blend it better. Overall, it works and I will look for it again. Recommend drinking by late 2022.

Very nice wine, especially for summer. Goes well with food or just by itself. Definite buy again.

Excellent QPR at under 15 dollars. Medium bodied with beeswax, flowers, a touch of wet wool, shorter finish but very refreshing.
I had half of the bottle; drunk over 1 night.
Vvv
