Compared to the 2019 Tourette this is better but the 2019 Premetta is the sexiest — 4 years ago

Tawny and translucent. Great nose right away. Notes of black cherry, slate, blueberries, iron and a little menthol. Rich and silky in the mouth. Some structure but soft and delicate too. Balanced and has a nice sweet fruit element. Just missing a little oomph in the finish. At peak and won’t benefit from more age. — 6 years ago

"He plays a game with which I am not familiar" is a famous golf saying. I'll have to borrow from this by saying this is a liquid with which I am not familiar. — 11 years ago

2009 Delas Freres Marquise de la Tourette Hermitage Blanc ( 90% Marsanne and 10% Roussanne)

Golden yellow color is pleasing. The nose is full of lemon, apple, pear, white peach, and apricot with some very mild spice, and perhaps some very light dried green herbs.

The palate is rather full and round with decent depth...with lemon, pear, white peach, and a floral component. The palate finishes with a light oily consistency , some light smoky minerality, and light mouth coating dryness/tannin. Decent length.
