  December 26, 2023 - I liked this more than last bottle. A little lighter yet flavorful.

  December 7, 2023 - In the glass, the wine has a limpid, platinum edged yellow-gold color. Aromas of white nectarines, crystallized ginger, peach blossoms, and dried orange zest move in and out of the foreground, sometimes alternating with discreet suggestions of Asian pears, salted melon rind, and fresh basil as the nose evolves in the glass. On the palate, the wine is perfectly dry, with a lovely seamless texture, and mineral-saturated flavors that echo the nose, all delicately seasoned with caraway, parsley, coriander, and dried lavender. Later, delicate peach stone bitterness and white nectarine acidity lengthen the creamy finish. To drink over the next three years, with simple, elegant preparations of seafood, vegetables, and poultry. (When Viognier from Condrieu finally became available for my wine list at Le Bec-Fin, I recommended drinking it alongside Georges Perrier’s quenelles de brochet, the airy, weightless, poached dumplings of pike that we served in a rich lobster sauce, which was his signature dish.)
  
  Grilled shrimp or langoustine, and other olive oil-laced seafoods (and seafood stews!) are recommended for this wine.
