Expert Reviews

90 Points | International Wine Cellar , January/February 2010

($30; 95% marsanne and 5% roussanne, raised 50% in new and used barriques and 50% in stainless steel tanks) Bright yellow. Exotically perfumed bouquet of white peach, orange, honey and baking spices, with an exotic floral overtone; smells like a viognier. Fleshy and smooth, offering gently sweet pit fruit flavors and a sneaky note of smoky minerality. Finishes with very good lingering spiciness and an echo of sweet orange. This is ready to drink.
