Deep gold in the glass. My nose is bothering me so I'm not getting too much from the aroma. Palate comes through with light quince and hay. Medium plus acidity; full Rhône mouthfeel. Delivers even when the nose is out of whack.

Pale gold color with honeysuckle, peach, melon, honey aromas. On the palate it's medium-bodied, dry and broad with racy acidity and an appealing hint of tannins. It shows peach, melon honey, and a hint of spice, flavors with an appealing combination of salinity and wet stone minerality on the long finish. Blend of 27% Viognier, 26% Grenache Blanc, 25 % Marsanne, and 22% Roussanne. 13.1% alcohol

Tasty white with a robust, slightly waxy texture and a nice blend of dry stone fruit flavors with accents of wild herbs. It went beautifully with some fresh pesto on Buka teeny. The herbaceousness of the basil brought out the fruit in the wine quite succinctly. .

Not my favorite vintage of this wine but none the less quite tasty. A bit more buttery and bitter almond than typical, went very well with clams casino.
