Reviews and Ratings

Julia Kelada rated this wine as 94/100 with the following review:

Provence, a region of majestic sun flowers standing tall and proud as if protecting the terroir. The earth, clay and limestone, nurturing the roots of these vines on the slow slopes, raising some of the best vines of Rolle and Grenache Blanc.

On the nose there are aromas of soft peaches and the sweetness of lychees. Citrus notes of lemon zest and herbal tones of thyme evoke your senses to want to discover more of it's personality.

On the palate, what a delicious delivery of soft peaches leading directly into citrus tones of lemon zest. The acidity peaks high at this point and then the sweetness of the lychees balances the palate to perfection. Herbal notes of thyme and fresh cut grass present before a delicious honey note, again see sawing the balance of this surprisingly, great personality, incredible wine. There is a slight sae salt and minerality on a wonderful, refreshing and firm finish. WOW!

I would pair this wine with scallops or just as is on a hot sunny day with a large brimmed hat!

Bottoms up!
