Properly dry with tight, fine bubbles and crisp notes of white peach, ripe grapefruit, and wet stones, with very little baking notes. Color is very light yellow with green hues to the center, and palate is bone dry, with more white peach (underripe), dry lemon, some slight hints of thyme or celery notes, and more grapefruit tartness with a lot of dry, limestone energy vibrating to the finish. — a month ago
Paired with sage chicken, the nose is all crisp yellow fruits, with notes of yellow apple and some mango rind prominent, though more dry than expected with some cooked fruit notes, pie like. Medium bodied with a pale yellow/gold color. The palate is somewhat creamy, with a lot of the same baked apple cobbler that the nose had, but still somewhat dry, with a lot of energy of the same yellow fruit with some peppery, baked cinnamon pastry, and peach cobbler notes on the long finish. — 2 months ago

Perfect pool wine for a hot day! Light bodied with notes of crisp green apple, castelvetrano olives and bright grassy notes just jump out of the crisp, light bodied wine. Palate has lots of energy, beautifully dry and mineral driven, but with slightly underripe green fruits dancing throughout. — a month ago
Strawberry, raspberry and even sone hints of rainier cherry on the nose, with little notes of grass and wet stone, but mostly all fruit over a pale pink/orange blush color with a party of fine bubbles emerging from below. Palate is more of the same, with loads of ripe red fruits, strawberries, rose, orange rind, white pepper and hints of baking spice over a grassy, slightly celery like core. Fruit forward, dry and Delicious! — 2 months ago
Deeep red with purple hues, medium bodied with a rich nose of iron, blood orange, raspberry, graphite, tar and red meat. Well integrated tannins persist, grippy, yet refined, with a bristly energy, and more iron, red meat, black cherry, crushed stone, pine cone, smoke and tobacco notes. Goodness I love Cote Rotie. — a month ago
Big nose of yellow fruit preserves and alcohol freshness, with notes of brûlée and vanilla weaved within. Medium bodied and golden hued, this is such a refined wine at such a young age, with a zippy acidic energy and flavors of overripe yellow fruits, oranges. and a loooong lingering finish. — a month ago
