Lighter than I expected but not disappointed with layers of exotic spice and fruit. Very reminiscent of an aged Cote Rotie. — 8 months ago

Really fresh and pleasing. Not far from new world Condrieu. More ripeness and heavy hand, surely. — 9 years ago
An orange wine for beginners. Light, fresh, nice. Some VA and oxidative notes, but in a way that lifts the green herbs and stone fruits. Playful acidity with a slight spritz. Pear, apricot and orange skin (and blossom) flavours, with a nicely grippy finish. Good stuff. — 9 years ago
2017 enjoyed 10/7/2023. nose: caramelized pineapple, wavering between oxidative and candied. wiffs of fresh floral pass quickly, stony/mineral undertone. palate: medium body, oily viscosity, high acid and mineral leave my tongue tingling. gorgeous. glad that I opened. — 7 months ago

2021 vintage. "Mule Blanche" is Jaboulet's white flagship Crozes-Hermitage, a blend of Marsanne and Roussanne from 40 years old estate vineyards. Expressive nose bursting with white fruit, flowers and fresh herbs. Bright and crisp fruit with mouthwatering acidity and a distinctive minerality. Very long minty finish. Hard to resist now, but should age well. Abv. 13% . — 2 years ago
Aromatic, floral, and a bit oily. Surprising minerality and notes of pineapple, lemon, and cantaloupe give this blend a fine structure and creamy finish. — 2 years ago
Love this unfiltered red blend, gallivanter, nice acidic start and berry finish, light to medium bodied, really tasty and easy drinking, — 4 years ago

Honeysuckle, donut peach, creamy, everything fully integrated at 11yrs. Probably a little better sooner, but not over the hill at all. Enjoyed it. — 8 months ago

Ok please don’t like this yet. This needs to be fixed. Funky town for sure. I would say Parmesan cheese. Soon more….Really crazy stuff! Well Kombucha, like quite acidic and astringent, buttery, nose, Muskat - orange blossoms. So much fun but obviously you have to be crazy to ask for this and drink it - even the staff at the restaurant hesitated. — 2 years ago
Don’t know how this one escaped my attention for so long, but I get why it’s so well loved. Ridiculous QPR. At the risk of both revealing my ignorance and offending everyone, I reckon this is the drink Stanley Dry White cask (a seminal drop in my existence, and fellow Australian cheapo icon) aspires to be. Whistle-clean citrusy drinker with intensity right round the edges. Cellaring a few of these from now on. — 4 years ago
Deep, rich and enveloped within a delicate creaminess here is a Northern Rhône white that deserves its praise. The fruit is soft and doesn’t overlay the mineral component. I really like this one. — 6 years ago
Dried flowers, pepper, and toffee. Lovely. — 9 years ago

Paired very nicely with the food. Lighter and more fruit forward than most Cotes de Rhône wines I have had before. Good balance. — 7 months ago
