2007 Domaine Saint Laurent Côtes du Rhône Noel St-LaurentMarsanne more |
5/16/2010 - win wrote: 88 pointsPrimarily Marsanne and Viognier. Straw yellow color, with a hint of oak and butter aromas. Slight tropical complexity to the wine, but not overpowering, with nice acidity. Drink over the next three years, and should be great this Summer. Good value. |
