White Rhone that is creamy lavender and honey suckle. It really tastes like Provence. First time drinking a wine that reminds of the actual place. Magical with Hokkaido scallop and rose wine poached octopus — 9 years ago

Candylike aromas on the nose of pear and red apple, bubblegum, cherry blossom. Sweet cherry blossom and honey on the palate with a big dose of anise, red and black licorice. Pure and crystalline but just a bit oversweet and medicinal to me. — 9 years ago
