– tasted a single glass non-blind over approx. 5 minutes – – bottle opened yesterday – – 40% Grenache Blanc, 23% Viognier, 20% Roussanne, 17% Marsanne – – Sugar at Pressing: 340 g/l; Residual Sugar: 174 g/l –
Orange-tinged yellow color of light depth. Intense perfume/agave nectar Nose. Full bodied on the palate with loads of honey and r.s.. 12.2% alc. was not noticeable. Acidity was noticeable, but I don’t think there’s enough there to make this a long-ager. Finish medium-short finish of great intensity. Tasty wine, but too expensive for what it is.

Rich and sweet...would have liked a touch more acidity to balance this out.

No detailed notes, just a rating on the tasting sheet. I do remember the nose being the best part of the glass.

A blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 23% Viognier, 20% Roussanne and 17% Marsanne. Straw yellow color. Orange blossom nose. Tastes of orange, peach and pear. Nice freshness. Rich honeyed finish.
