Balanced. Florals, minerals acid at the back. Not worth the price tag however IMO — you’re paying for a tiny appellation w no room to expand...

Grapefruit yes, floral yes, acidity yes, delicious yes.
But not what our group was expecting, perhaps that is our fault, perhaps some of that is on the somm as we described what we wanted out of the wine.
I was thinking this, somewhat like a Guigal Condrieu, would have some more weight and richness and would stand up to our mains better but it didn’t shine.
This was more restrained than anticipated.
