Great package! Nice and floral with berries on the nose. Not as yeasty as anticipate (4 years on lees). Medium bodied palate with moderate acidity. Has a nice richness on midpalate, but not too much. Nice berries, minerals, and finishes with a touch of tannin?!?! Finishes like some of the dry rose's from Loire. Interesting.

Blend of Tocai Friulano, Pinot Gris, Torrontes, and Chardonnay. Unique to say the least. The nose is reminiscent of a Condrieu. Rich and heady with a touch of floral aromatics, white pepper, and tropical fruits. The palate isn't quite as rich, and displays low acidity. Heavy use of oak. Not my favorite, but would probably appeal to a crowd.

Nice and clean aromatics of stonefruit, peach, and minerals. Palate is medium bodied with a fresh burst of fruit and acidity. Fairly balanced and enjoyable. Definitely a food wine.

This is a serious "beaujolais". Drinks more like a Gevrey than anything else. Ripe aromatics, but not bubble gummy, with bing cherry, high minerality, and a slight earthiness. Touch of spices on the palate with firm dusty tannins, great acidity, and not overly fruity. The minerality is amazing on nose and palate.

I thought this showed nicely. Consumed over a 2 hour period. Tight with high acidity at first. Opened up with a perfumed nose of potpourri, high minerality content, and bing cherry. Only slightly rustic with an herbal streak and earth tone. The fruit is definitely ripe and the acids tone down. Medium body and still holding on to some grippy tannins. I think it's a good representation for NSG in a tough vint without showing overripeness of fruit. First time with this producer and an enjoyable one.

Definitely not my favorite of the bunch, but still represents a well made Cote Rotie. Nose is full of earthy funk with that scorched earthiness going on. Ripe black fruits are well integrated with tannin and acid for what was a balanced wine and drank well for hours.

Nice! Ripe and heady with inky black and blue fruits, Bordeaux earthiness, and chocolate. Very rich extracted palate, but still maintains this awesome elegance. Was never overpowering. The tannins are there, but well integrated and not obtrusive. Finishes with a great burst of blackberries and acidity. This will evolve into a great wine.

WOTN. Ripe and smokey nose with bacon fat, blueberry pie, and black fruits. Palate is beautifully balanced with ripe blackberries, smoked meat, and a toastiness. The tannins are huge, but again well integrated within the ripeness of fruit and acidity. Fantastic. Finishes with a unique minerality.

I liked the Lieu Dit St Joseph better tonight, but this will come around to be an amazing wine. Not quite as richly concentrated, this showed more terroir with minerality, high acidity, baked earthiness. Actually it took a while for the fruit to sneak through. This needs time in bottle to be enjoyed, but was great to taste tonight.
