  The wine is a light golden yellow color. The light and summery nose has melon, peach pit, minerals, white flowers, orange zest and a touch of spice. This dry wine has medium body and very nice acidity. On the palate melon and apricot flavors occupy the front end with some building minerality and citrus coming in on the back end. The finish has very nice length with minerals and some spice seeming to linger forever. This tastes very good now and will last in the cellar for a couple of years.

  Very pretty in the glass, a clear golden hue, and on the nose it's difficult - like chasing butterflies. It's very slightly effervescent on the tip and front of your tongue then expands in minerality, depth, and complexity as it moves towards the back. This is a really, really nice Grenache Blanc & Roussanne! Stems up!

  Pleasant although a bit tart. Nothing stands out.
