Community Tasting Notes 3

  November 13, 2022 - The best of 3 bottles and better on day 2, so not at peak IMO although enjoyable now and not as fussy as bottle #2 2.5 years ago. Less rich and more versatile at the table than some Marsanne based Rhones in my mix this year.

  January 5, 2020 - Served at 56 degrees. Started out pleasant, but hollow, with light yellow fruits and straw, but gained depth in the decanter from a toffee note on the nose and honeydew on the palate. Round but not sweet, with subtle minerality and nice persistence. Eventually I returned it to the bottle for a little chill down but only after it got to room temp. 89-90 this time. Hold.

  November 24, 2017 - Minerals and straw, balsawood, hint of melon. Showed more with each sip, but the nose was decidedly closed for business. Decant while young or hold. This wine deserved a more subtle occasion than this particular dinner party. 87-88 out of the bottle but expect greater things down the road & under ideal serving conditions.
