2015 Hermitage Blanc

Pale brilliant gold. Ripe, mineral-tinged orchard and pit fruits on the deeply perfumed nose, complicated by dusty mineral, jasmine and ginger nuances. Shows impressive depth as well as energy; intense Meyer lemon, pear nectar and white peach flavors pick up a hint of smokiness as the wine opens up. Displays real power and repeating pit fruit character on the finish, which lingers with superb, mineral-driven persistence.
