[75% Roussanne, 18% Grenache Blanc, 7% Picpoul Blanc, 13.0% ABV] Color on this younger Esprit Blanc is noticeably darker, very nutty, almost sweet, aromas, rich and viscous on the palate, but lacks the amazing cut and precision of the older 2011, good balance and length, but merely good tonight. — 7 hours ago

2018 vintage. A blend of Merlot (65%), Cabernet Franc (20%), and Cabernet Sauvignon from diverse vineyards in Saint-Emilion and Côtes de Castillon owned by the Perse family. Aged for 15 months in used barrels from Pavie and Monbousquet. A solid,bold wine, ready to drink, with good fruit and some of the chalkiness that I associate with Castillon. Abv. 14,5%. — 10 months ago

Very special rose from Barossa. Savory and ripe red berry flavors and intense flavor and long lasting. Will chill it and drink more later — 6 years ago

I bought this cheap to splash into some braised short rib. Of course, I'll have more than the beef will.
It's good. Dusty and plenty of garrigue. Will pair well with the short rib if I can wait that long.

Read the hype, bought the bargain, drank it alone like a responsible adult. Too bad the 2021 is too young and tight-wound at first, but on day three it exhaled and pulled me completely inward. Magnetic. I am sold. Deep and complex, there are too many layers to name, but i immensely enjoy the fruit’s push against the savory pull. Quietly persuasive rather than flashy. — 10 months ago

2016 vintage. Second label with plenty of stuffing to warrant attention. Unexpected passenger fruit aboard alongside the expected tannic cargo. Great value if you can source it. Less than $30 resto cost and built to drink now or in a decade+. 01.30.25. — 2 years ago

Drinks well above its price point, fruity; strawberry, melon—but dry and luscious, bought half a case, wish I had purchased a full case—great summer rose — 5 years ago

This is definitely an extra dry. The champagne starts dry and finishes dry. In between there is nice green apple. A very nice drinking champagne!!! — 6 years ago
