These are night 3 notes! And it’s still showing beautifully. Peach and guava fruit on the nose. Some wet stream stones too. Got that Roussanne waxy, broad lanolin thing going on in the mouth, but unlike the Rhone examples, it’s not heavy or oily-textured. Nice freshness and purity in the finish. Great value.

Gentle slap across the head to wake you to pay attention. Stove fruits and acids lingering long into finish. Stood up to meat dishes easily.
