Aromatic floral - tea and citrus aromas- pretty but comes off clumsy

It's blanc it's young it's an oily grease slick. Dip your lobster in this butter.

Cocoon. Very rich and honeyed with an oxidative note. Lacking much experience with old Hermitage Blanc, fingers crossed and check in again in 10 years.

Very dense and honeyed. Not quite ready yet, but showing a lot of potential. Super intense.

Expansive and expressive nose with notes of beeswax, pear, nectarine, orange peel and warm stones. Just entering the start of its prime drinking window. Texture is lush, round and creamy. Has focus and lively flavors but not acid driven. Long, rich finish with orange, mineral, hazelnut and lemon cream flavors.

Marcona almonds and candy orange. Just a touch of glycerol and butterscotch. Golden color.
