The 2013 is a blend of 30% Char, 20% Viognier, 20% Roussanne, and the rest of Chenin Blanc, Grenache Blanc, Semillion, and a few more.
Pale yellow gold. Inviting nose of pineapple, peach, honeysuckle, floral, perfume, vanilla, and very subtle note of petrol and mineral. Rich and textured on the palate with just the right amount of acidity. Lovely chrysanthemum tea like finish.
Not a fan of kitchen sink blends that are popular nowadays, but this is well made, and to me it's better made than the Prisoner.

Jun 18th, 2016Alright. Sweet, maybe a little too much. Low/no acid; low fruit. A bit buttery. A hint smoky? Nose lightly hinting at Saran Wrap, but not in a bad way.
