Estimate
Creamy and lush, with notes of pear, Cavaillon melon, white peach and persimmon gilded with a range of acacia, jasmine, verbena and honeysuckle notes. The long finish pulls everything together with a bitter almond hint, picking up brioche and salted butter accents along the way, all while showing remarkable balance.
Buoyant aromas of marmalade, caramel and smoke accent pert yellow apple and pineapple here...it's voluminous and stately with a waxy, undulating mouthfeel freshened by a tangy mineral crush.
…a total blockbuster... Killer notes of apple blossom, buttered citrus, and orange blossom all soar from the glass of this rich, powerful Hermitage Blanc that has a red wine-like structure, a huge mid-palate, and a great finish.
…subtle notes of pencil shavings, ripe, tropical fruit and tremendous presence on the palate...long, slightly honeyed and cedary finish.
Fresh pit fruits, lemon pith, jasmine and chamomile on the deeply perfumed nose, along with suggestions of honey and succulent herbs. Pliant and broad on the palate, offering ripe nectarine, pear nectar and Meyer lemon flavors...vibrant mineral note builds steadily on the energetic finish, which leaves a suggestion of bitter pear skin behind.
Dark plums, mocha and intense, stony, graphite-like mineral accents with a strong serving of mocha-scented oak...palate is built on silky tannins, very bright, red plums and a supple, velvety slide to the finish.
Buttery, spicy nose and ripe, concentrated tropical fruit. Density, length, richness... Creamy texture. Sweetcorn and spice on the finish. Superpowered and lengthy.
