A white blend- 40% grenache blanc, 30% roussanne, 20% clairette, 5% viognier, and 5% bourboulenc. Not at all familiar with 3 of the 5 grapes.
A little bit of oak, vanilla, and apple on the nose.
Delightful, and evokes memories of Conundrum, a white blend I enjoy.
Found at Costco, don’t recall the price.
Would buy again, maybe by the case.

Smells like crisp green apple and pear.
Without googling it, would guess stainless steel and not oak.
Light, fruity and refreshing without being overly sweet.
These sound tasty, but also emphasize how little I know about French whites . . . . .
"Amazing what a minute can do."
