August 16, 2019 - We waited a little too long but still a nice rich wine. Not bad after all these years but a little over the peak. Rich, chewy, some citrus, good balance

October 1, 2012 - The 2011 M-R from Cline is more interesting than the 2010, in my opinion.
What struck me first this year was the nose - it has elements reminiscent of a sauv blanc, gooseberry, pineapple, citrus.
Looking at the blend, and realizing that it was 76% Marsanne, made a bit more sense, but still not what I expected from this combo.
All stainless.
In the mouth, its also a bit SB like in the front palate, picking up some stone fruits in the mid palate.
Bright on finish.
A Rhone for Sauv Blanc drinkers.
