90 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2010

($40; 30% each of clairette and bourboulenc, 25% roussanne, 14% grenache blanc and tiny bits of picpoul and picardin) Sexy, complex nose combines peach, lemon zest, minerals, hazelnut and leesy traces. Densely packed and tactile, with tangy minerality to the chewy, dry flavors of yellow peach and spices. This concentrated, nervy wine finishes broad, with good structure and finesse. I'd give it a year or two to loosen up. (North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley CA
