The 2017 Chasselas de Marin is a crisp yellow-golden hue. The nose shows a foundation of savory yellow apples, fresh white flowers, baking spices, and pointed aromas of quince, mint, and pine. On the tongue, this wine is salty, with lemon pith and lime zest. My drinking partner mentioned a certain "Ricolla" fruit and herb combo that was spot on. The mouthfeel is high-toned, established by acidity and mineral spark. A glimpse of sweet apricot adds an unexpected, pleasantly weighty flavor to the wine's great saline driven finish. Shocking in complexity - ready to go on day one, but with even more tangy citrus developing on the second night. Wow... David Hatzopoulos
