September 5, 2016 - A fine and very age-worthy blend of 66% Roussanne and 34% Bourboulenc. Medium (+) yellow in color, with some golden hues due to aging. The nose is clean, with aromas of white peaches, white flowers, lemon and honey. The nose is developed. The palate is dry, with medium to medium (+) acidity and high alcohol at 14.5%. It is remarkably well preserved but appears at the end of its optimal drinking window. Drink now.

October 30, 2008 - La Strada Gary Rona -- Gorgeous nose of wet crushed stones, orange blossom, chamomile, honey, hazelnut and spearmint. Fresh and lively on the palate yet with a dense ripe fruit core. Oh the glory of white Rhones!
