Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Light straw color. Intense floral aromas with scents of peach and melon followed by herbal and mineral notes. This is a complex, crisp and well-balanced wine with flavors of stone fruit, citrus and pear.
A food-friendly wine which perfectly matches grilled lamb, pork and assorted cheeses.

Wine Enthusiast
Blossomy and fresh, Jean Luc Colombo's entry-level bottling offers a bang-for-your-buck introduction to the Rhône region's uniquely silken, textural white wines. Made primarily from Clairette, it's chock-full of easy drinking apple and lemon flavors touched by hints of bitter almond and smoke. Drink now through 2020.

Wine Spectator
Plump and friendly, with yellow apple, honeysuckle and mirabelle plum notes mixed together. A flash of quinine on the shortbread-framed finish keeps this honest. A crowd-pleaser.
