From 75cl, good cork, best on opening and +1 hour, thereafter started to untangle. Interesting, complex scent with licquorice, humid summer nighttime pollen—lots of good stuff; medium-bodied entry, more like a good Rhône than Languedoc, plenty of attractive tropical fruit on the balanced mid-palate, feels more like 13,5% alc than the 14,5% on the label (I mean that as a compliment). A fine value at just over 16 EUR, and a lovely drink: probably not a keeper, but good now-2022. A definite rebuy. 88-89P

Roussanne and Marsanne blend. Deep golden colour, white flower and pineapple aromas. The flavour is rich, with tropical notes (guava maybe), quince and satsuma, which develops strongly into a honeyed, slightly oaked finish. Delicious. A bin end and to get again, happily passes for a more expensive Rhine.
