  Very enjoyable with Sunday night sushi. White flowers with a hint of citrus on the nose. The palate was melon, pear with a little orange rind leading to a smooth finish of moderate length.

  At first, I tasted “winter fruit” which turned out to be baked pears—plain, baked, underripe Bartlett pears.
  As it warmed and opened I can’t help but have notes of those disposable styrofoam model airplanes you got as a treat from your dentist’s office, along with moderate and lovely acid.
  Overall, a lovely funky white! #iykyk

  Baked pears, lemon and lime, wood on the nose. Lovely acid for a hot year. Soft finish. Just enough random to prove The Rocks are no joke.

  As it currently drinks, this wine is ridiculously under-rated, deserves much more than a 91 point average. Densely flavored with limestone-ish minerality, lemon peel, quince, yellow stone fruit, vanilla bean, white pepper and a Hawaiian pineapple finish. Undulating, mouthcoating body with lively acidity. Age-defying for a domestic white wine with no end in sight--should make 2025 handily. Am guessing that Marsanne is the primary grape. We oohed and ahhed to the last drop. Heartbroken that this is my last bottle.

  I had not had this before, but I knew of it , and I drink and love a lot of white rhône. The price tag $(63). led me to hope, to expect , at that price, that whatever was missing in minerality, terroir typicity, and/or petrol/oily slitheriness would be compensated for by fresh tropical complexity, richness and length. It’s best to start these in the glass fairly cold, and observe the change in the glass over 40 minutes. Nose shows tangerine, red grapefruit, scrambled eggs, and tarragon. Flavors explode in the mouth: ripe cantaloupe, orange rind, pomelo, vanilla bean, cherimoya, and a dry fairly short white pepper finish. Perfect with a simple herb roasted chicken and root veggies. Expectations were almost fulfilled.
