2017 - Domaine Pierre Gonon, Saint Joseph Les Oliviers

Pale yellow. Aromas of fresh pear, melon and white peach are complicated by orange zest and jasmine nuances. Nervy and penetrating on the palate, offering mineral-tinged pear and tangerine flavors that deepen steadily on the back half. Anise and ginger emerge on an impressively long, mineral-dominated finish that echoes the floral and pear notes.
