After a slow and warm start the ice bucket came to the rescue and brought this back to fine form. Having this next to a few great Riesling really really highlights the differences that Gruner has from Riesling. More "green" with peas and basil mixed with the stone fruit and minerality. — 9 years ago

A bowl of fruit. Bright, clean aromas of blueberry, overripe strawberry and fresh basil. The palate echoes the nose with some sour cherry thrown in for good measure. Stays open and vibrant when chilled. Surprising length on the finish. A true vin de soif, I want to drink this from a sheepskin whilst on horseback.... — 10 years ago

This is sav blanc and semillon from Napa. There's a fair amount of oak and med to full weight but it's well integrated with a basil cumin spice profile that is compelling. — 9 years ago

Little bursts of creamy tangerine, slick pineapple, tingles of lime and a minerally zing on the finish. Very clean and crisp. The tangerine peel just goes on and on, lingering long after the initial zippy fruit. Intriguing! Great with Asian food...Wok Basil Chicken, Beef, and Shrimp in particular for me and sushi for my wife. I'm singing "I'm in heaven! Oh so heaven!" — 10 years ago

Ahhhh, a Provence Rose! It's a very warm night...82F and I'm sitting by my fire...so the perspiration is accumulating and I'm drinking a refreshing Rose that is perfect for a night like this! This Chateau La Moutete Grande Reserve is peach colored, with notes of very light florals, watermelon, and a Sauv Blanc-ness to it that reminds me of grapefruit on the nose. on the palate I get strawberry, black licorice, and a hint of basil. This wine is slightly acidic, especially on the finish (again, reminding me of a soft Sauv Blanc). No tannins, and a grape-fruity finish at the end.   Even though my beloved Red Sox are losing to the Skankees tonight, I'm enjoying this fantastic wine! — 10 years ago
