Winemaker Notes
Pale yellow color with emerald green tint. Rich nose dominated by citrus fruits and green lemon. The second nose, more complex, reveals exotic fruits (pineapple, mango), anise and bitter almond aromas. A well balanced and fresh wine with a lemony finish - just like biting into a fresh, ripe grape. This wine is 100% Marsanne.

A Rhone white with plenty of flavor interest and pizazz, the 2015 Cave de Tain delivers substantive texture on the palate, with excellent core fruit and savory earth notes. The wine's long finish brings the wine to a fine crescendo. Drinks well now. (Tasted: September 20, 2016, San Francisco, CA)

Wine Spectator
Fresh and direct, with white peach and mirabelle plum notes streaking through, backed by a verbena thread and a stony echo on the unadorned finish. Very refreshing.
