"Aromas of roasted stone fruits and lemon peel, a touch of gunflint then barrel spices, a nut burnt butter quality highlights both wood influence, lees and ripeness of fruit. Lovely weight and satin-cream cream texture combine to deliver a plush raw-silk mouthfeel. Flavours of nut, spice, citrus and stone fruits reflect the bouquet. Dry, persistent, taut and youthful, a wine that will continue to age and develop if stored well." - Cameron Douglas MS
The nose is a harmony of white nectarine and the oak-influenced aromas of miso caramel and charred pineapple. The palate is ripe and rich with a brilliantly resolved acidity that sparkles like the crunch of a flaky salt crystal. Fruit is ever-present with layers of nectarine, pineapple, stewed Granny Smith apples, and the smoky oak wafting through.
We've always been fans of Languedoc reds, and having tried this for the first time we are much taken with this example of southern whites. Beautiful balance of acidity and freshness. This will be on our repeat shopping list like Villa Blanche.
Although this is a new vintage for us, it never fails to delight. Full of lovely crisp Grenache flavour. We bought it for summer and starting drinking it in mid-winter!!
Clear cab sav and merlot on the nose, clean not complex. Soft tannins and good fruit moderately sustained.. Clean finish. Good oak handling. Certainly not a platinum whatever that is but good silver and excellent value for the money
A great bridge between commercial and premium, plus it's a good conversation starter! 5 stars at the current discounted price.

Great Value
At its price, one of the best reds I have tasted. The experience is consistent with the bottle notes, fruity, balanced with a hint of oak and a long finish.
