100% Marsanne, plush/soft texture, fleshy, peach and pear. 2012. Ripe, but still balanced.

A hint of creme brûlée to sweeten up an otherwise steely, petrololeum flavor. Lovely with summer salad and lemon whitefish.

2010. Strange saline and sweet tarragon aromas--at times poblano, corn tortilla, and salinity had this crazy momentary ureic allusion. Yup. Weird, huh? Maybe from the white wine sautéed leeks on my palate ..? Pretty intriguing...if pleasantly different from anything else. This is outperforming many a vintage of Clape St Peray in my tasting..others were hot and caramel across an unpleasant finish.

Rich nose of dried fruits, lemon/lime zest and white blossom. Bright approach, Fatty texture, lingering apricot finish. Really nice wine
