  Let breath for thirty minutes. In a very nice drinking window, but should last another another five plus years.

  keeps getting better with age. very good oily, waxy, floral, tropical roussanne. not quite beaucastel levels, but not that far back.

  first bottle in 2 years and age has treated this wine well. Beautiful expression of roussanne, deep gold in colour, viscous oily texture with beeswax and lanolin. Tropical fruits and a balancing acidity. Seems to be coming around well, still a bit of heat on the back end though. Will wait at least a year before opening the next.

  Consumed several months ago so from memory. Rhone white from California that showed a nice level of complexity with some brioche notes. Went great with Vietnamese seafood.
