Pear, soft smoke on latex, lychee/ginko syrup, schisty with a hint of banana peel in limoncello initially pop from the glass, but subside into distinct minerality. Heavy mouthfeel, bordering on cream, with a strong lemon against a ground granite dust. Banana pepper, olive oil, finishing dry and spicy, but always in the shadow of a pineapple foam. Long finish. I prefer more acidity, and citrus, but this one is a treat. #viogier #chapoutier #PicandChapoutier #whitewine
