This is a blend of Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. It’s extraordinarily rich in peach, pear, citrus and honeysuckle flavors, and is marked by zesty acidity, with a buttercreamy, oaky note. Interesting and complex. Try as an exotic alternative to a big Chardonnay. ——S.H.(2/1/2011)—— 88

A blend of Viognier, Roussanne and Grenache Blanc, this wine is slightly sweet and simple, despite high acidity. There’s a firm minerality to the honeysuckle, pineapple and oak flavors. The challenge for the winemaker is to make the wine drier.——S.H.(12/31/2007)—— 86
