Du "gros" vin blanc minéral et avec une amertume en finale qui ne pas plût. Bien fait pour le prix, mais aurait mérité un peu plus de maturité pour le rendre plus aimable à mon avis.

Citrus and honeysuckle flavor with a nice long finish. Very good value. Update: After letting this wine breathe for about an hour, I raised my score. This wine is also better if a little closer to room temperature than most white wines.

Nice big white, weight without lushness, white peach fruit, very fresh, balance is good but low side on acid. Long smooth finish. At $15 a very nice value.

Another vintage and another solid white from Domaine Lafage. Pretty consistent with the 2018 but with a touch less depth and richness and a more poised, minerally style. The nose is initially floral and delicate with honeysuckle and orange blossom followed by peach, grapefruit and lime wafting up. The palate has a rich texture and is beautifully balanced through the crisp, almost flinty finish. Very elegant, very classy and excellent value.

Unremarkable, if not solid, with hints of Crenshaw melon and Mandarin orange flanked by medium acidity and a skosh of minerality.

Un très joli blanc pour le prix. Des notes fruits blancs, de roches mouillées et florales. Bel équilibre avec du corps et des flaveuirs beurrées. Très bien.

Idem à ma note précédente et celle de flussier. Rare les vins avec une aussi belle minéralité, longueur et présence en bouche pour les $ demandés...

De belles arômes de fruit blanc (poire), de miel et pointe de minéralité. Parfaite cohérence en bouche, avec une belle matière riche et ample. Longueur raisonnable et touche d'amertume, et herbacé en finale. Beau RQP.

Jaune très pâle. Nez qui me fait penser à un Mousseau avec le côté minéral vif et frais. En bouche, arômes d’orange et de cire. Long en bouche, vin bien fait. Excellent RQP.

Lots of honeysuckle! Not bad with fried seafood but a little too rich alone

Green Apple, Grapefruit, herb, pepper, med acidiity. feels like some Malo on my tongue. Nice dry finish. Great QPR drinker from LaFage. Nice alternative to Chardonnay.

Lots of minerally character, subdued fruit and very food friendly, but finishes a bit tart and tight. May improve with another year or so of bottle age, but still likeable.

Crispy and flinty. Nice fruit, with spine, depth and length. Lost its fruit on day three. Nevertheless an excellent QPR at 9.- Euros. Drink up during 2017.

Really enjoyed this again. Solid white Rhone blend for the money. This time I detected a ginger note on the palate.

Bouquet of white flowers, apricot, lemon, lime and wet stone. Stone fruit, citrus and mineral on the palate. Finishes long and dry with balanced acidity. Served with chicken with prosciutto and fontina cheese.

I much preferred this vintage to the previous one. A really well-made wine at a compelling price (<$12). I don't know if it what I ate with it, but I really got a lot of pineapple notes. The tropical nature was balanced by a razor-sharp acidity (good thing), something not always present in these southern French Grenache Blanc-heavy blends. Enjoyed it.

Årgång 2013 var ett fynd hösten 2014 för 92:- på bolaget. Årgång 2014 i beställningssortimentet hösten 2016 för 119:- (!) är långtifrån ett fynd. Syran är inte tillräcklig för att väga upp alkoholen och den ganska klumpiga tropiska frukten som det finns alltför mycket av. Jag misstänker att vinet borde ha druckits för ett år sedan men jag är inte säker på att det hade hjälpt.

Wonderful steely minerals with lychee, lilikoi and melon, and finishing quite savory and saline. Presents itself as light and fresh, but is deceptively full on the palate. Not the most acidic however, so pair carefully.

Reading the comments this comes across as a decent wine with nobody jumping up and down. White grenache which is new to me. I like it but don't love it. Maybe over rated just because nobody dislikes it.

Interesting wine with flavors of apple, peach and pineapple, without being too sweet. Good acid balance. Had with poached salmon and used some when cooking. Nice pairing Very good value for the money.
