Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jul 02
(mostly roussanne, with some marsanne and chardonnay) Pale gold color. Spicy, leesy, slightly exotic aromas of honey, clove, oatmeal and smoke. Fat, sweet, spicy and dense, with a flavor of butterscotch. Boasts a remarkably silky, oily texture for Languedoc white wine. Persistent and chewy on the back end.
