87 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2010

($70; 100% roussanne) Bright gold. Leesy peach, marzipan and vanilla aromas show a distinctly oily oak character. Sweet and lush following the precise regular bottling, with the spicy vanillin oak element leavened by a touch of lemon zest. In a rather fat style that some might find oppressive. I would serve this rather exotic wine with the richest, most buttery seafood and poultry dishes, or with the strongest, funkiest cheeses. (Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester VA
