Delicious. Interesting color in the glass between Starbright lemon and golden, moderately aromatic with yellow fruit and blossom, palate is dry, complex and integrated, ripe stone fruit leads with nectarines and a bit of apricot, melon, apple, sweet citrus bit of zest, lemon cream, acidity is bright, body medium +, finish will not quit. Happy we have another bottle in the cellar.

This is a medium straw-yellow colored, hazy wine. The flavors are somewhat varietal of Roussanne and Marsanne with some lemon, apricot, and tropical fruit. The finish is flinty with some bitterness. The body is medium with an austere structure. This is a good wine, but it's not up to par with the good quality Rhone whites.

Pop and pour. In the glass, medium-pale gold. On the nose, honeysuckle, slate, and a hint of tropical fruit. On the palate, the tropical fruit comes to the fore - mango and passionfruit, with a bracing steely note that delivers tension, paired with a lean but smooth texture.

Delicious like most everything from Sanguis. This is a gorgeous Roussanne blend with clay soil notes balancing the savory white fruit and light citrus zest. I'm glad I'm in the club or I never would have bought the whites, which are remarkable. Prices have gone up here as everywhere but it's still one of the only clubs I belong to as the wines are wonderful and hard to buy on the aftermarket, perhaps in part because of all my tasting notes! Sorry not sorry.

A WTSO special. Great complexity and finesse to the flavors. You can almost taste the individual varieties. Really unique.
Color. Rich gold and yellow.
Nose. Honey, melon, apples, straw, lemongrass.
Palate. Straw, honey, oak.
Very interesting wine.
