Rated 92-94
Tasted as a final blend before bottling, the 2023 Cotes de Tablas Blanc is 34% Viognier, 31% Marsanne, 20% Grenache Blanc, 13% Roussanne and 2% Clairette Blanche. The nose is a beautiful combination of floral, breezy, honeyed and ripe, with ripe but focused orchard fruit aromas mingling with those of white flowers and wild herbs. The palate echoes this balance with lovely concentration and power braced with streaks of bright, chiseled precision.
