  Still light golden color.
  
  Noticeable but not overwhelming petrol and beeswax nose to start. The nose is tertiary, rosemary, anise, candy lemon and pineapple, pine and light cream caramel with a hint of limestone, very complex. The palate is impressive, excellent concentration, bright acidity with very stony finish. A great example of fully matured white Rhone that Bob often mentions but most of often rarely have the pleasure to encounter. 94 pts.
