  100% viognier. Le nez est élégant et délicat sur la pomme et le fleurs blanches. Il semble nous ammener en Côte de Beaune. En bouche, on goutes les poires et les pêches. Le vin à une certaine rondeur et tapisse la bouche. Il y a cependant une certaine amertume en fin de bouche qui ternis le vin à mon avis. Très bon vin mais sans être exceptionnel.

  Delicious, oily mouthfilling viognier. Quite subtle at this point, will develop more character with age. There is good acidity and a saline minerality here that suggests a relatively long life ahead. Delicate white peach, marzipan and pear, finishes with a tang that suggests some skin contact in the making. Long and fairly straightforward. Drinking now, will improve.

  Not bad at all, but severely overpriced in relation to the quality. Typical white Rhône with some apricots, litchi and yellow apples. Nice wine, but nothing exceptional.
