2021 Margerum 'M5' White Rhone Blend Los Olivos

$34.95

Slight straw and golden hues with a viscosity that clings to the glass as it is swirled. Apricots, white floral, sweet honey, hints of brioche toast, sweet pea flowers and pineapple. Full, round and pleasing with ample acidity to balance the richness that will continue to evolve with time in bottle. Flavors of apple, wet stone and a touch of peach nectar engage with a lovely long persistent finish that lingers.

Wine Enthusiast

A light color in the glass, this blend of 47% Grenache Blanc, 23% Marsanne, 17% Roussanne, 9% Viognier and 4% Picpoul Blanc shows crips aromas of apple, lime and ash on the zesty and vibrant nose. There's an intense grip to the sip, where citrus and pome fruit flavors stay sprightly and fun.
