Red and blue fruits, but the strong part of the show is the aromatics of flowers from the Viognier and some bacon fat from the Blonde based Ampuis Syrah. A restrained 13% abv 2009, acidity is in check and the mineral and floral core of the wine intact. Excellent structure and good length in the finish. #coterotie #jaboulet — 9 years ago

It's like having an apricot iced tea with a splash of Jamaican rum. #viognier #rhonevalley #jaboulet #perrin lemon and mandarin rine and fresh apricots on the nose with similar sensations on the palate together with an oily texture and a kick of white pepper spice. Highly #quaffable — 8 years ago
