Reynaud wine tasting, Pure Spirits (Gallina restaurant): 50% grenache 50% clairette, fermented individually, longer ageing than normal hence the term “grande reserve”, the bottle was opened and left uncorked for 24 hours, served in a sparkling wine glass -/- The wine shows impressive density, full on ripeness but also freshness, ripe stone fruit, peach, apricot, mango, tropical fruit note, overripe orange, nice spice frame, a touch earthy, vanilla, biscuit, decadent notes, very welcoming. Palate showing intensity, there is warmth, overripe citrus and stone fruit mainly apricot, textured, med body, feels evolved, med body, long finished. Nice and spicy, nutty, almond notes, feels heavy, oily, impressive and overall elegant for such a wine. Outstanding quality

Beautiful nose, balanced palate, but this bottle didn’t have the concentration of the first bottle. Just a little thin. Hope other bottles are similar to the first.

Super balanced delicate florals, lime lemons candied apples, apricots. Almost like a rayas blanc
