Fantastic unctuous wine. Very golden yellow, looks like an off Chard! Decanted for an hour and served at a cool, not cold temperature. Honey and Orange initial taste with further floral, vanilla and citrus notes. The complexity and mouth feel make this a sipping white, not one to be rushed!

This was extraordinary tonight with oodles of rich, penetrating stone fruit, baking spice(mostly nutmeg) and subtle floral undertones. The depth, concentration and complexity are noteworthy and the mouthfeel is in the mid weight to full bodied range. What a delight!

Rich notes of orange marmalade, vanillin, faint peach and flowers. Rich and voluptuous on the palate with notes on the nose delivering the same fruit on the palate. Incredible wine of density, medium to large-scaled. Just fantastic!

Very deep mouth, some nuts and peach. It's pure and fresh and the same time, very dense but pure, very good balance and a stony final with beautiful length.
Excellent

"Single" Bottle SLDS @ Glass: Intense nose of lemon, pear, peach and toast. Palate is wound up but there is clear quality here, pure fruit, plenty of depth and density but still great mineral control and drive. Superb wine even at this youthful stage.

14.5% alc. Pear, peach, spice. The palate shines. Fresh. So well balanced, it carries the flavours so easy. That ever so slight oily texture more than compensated for by the line of acid. Terrific length too. Combined perfectly with crab omelette.

A good example of 2014's quality, when it comes to Northern Rhône whites; this hat the fat of the land and and immense length, yet it is mineral, vibrant with a bright acidity that keeps the rich fruit in place. It is great - and will be great, superior to the Pavillon. #Vinisud

Smoky nose with a lot of peach.

柑橘、白梨、硬桃的果香，搭配少许香料和奶油气息，并不复杂但芳香浓郁。入口保持了统一的风格，良好的酸度经过醒酒，变得更加通透，与清爽纯净的香气相得益彰，后段微微的单宁硬度和蜂蜜回味则增添了复杂性，让整款酒不会显得单调无聊。
