Tasting Notes

Two words…intriguing and exotic…I have had the pleasure of creating wines from this extraordinary variety in my previous wine life here in Martinborough and so to revisit this iconic Southern France variety, that I might add, is experiencing a revival, is pure joy…. Another two words…. adore and admire.. Both in synergy…adore for its flirtatious nature and admire for its scarcity of production outside of its homeland, and for us only 300 bottles produced The flirtatious nature is expressed in its distinctive and prominent gloss in its viscous texture, Soft lush flavours are carried upon a 6g/L residual sugar of succulent and almost non relevant sweetness, of ripe peaches, musk and honeysuckle, this is what makes for a wine that screams to be paired with scallops or a chicken tagine with apricots and almonds on a saffron rice…you would think that I’m the chef…but no I’m still only the crafter of these beautiful grapes..

On the palate it’s generous and softly textured, yet beautifully in balance, with stone fruit, gentle citrus and a hint of spice carried by bright, natural acidity.
