This has aged beautifully and I wish I had written down my notes when I tasted it the first time around 2016. The fruit was still fresh and balanced nicely against a light acidity and crisp finish. Somewhat aromatic still and pure in color.

Good? Just not a ton of character. Cali Marsannes seem to have more zip...probably not a fair representative statistically significant comment, but that's what I've seen.

Lemon, melon and mineral on the palate. A bit of an off note to my palate, but my wife really liked it. I prefer Maison Bleue's version from the same fruit source.
