The 2015 Gripa "Le Berceau" Blanc is 100% Marsanne from 60+ year-old vines in the "Saint-Joseph" vineyard above Tournon. 215 cases made, a rare and beautiful wine. Reviewed in drinkrhone:  "pretty full yellow robe. The nose is large, not much open, bears a weighty and ripe fruit content. There are hints of petrol  and aniseed with a roasted nuts, nougat suggestion: we are further south than St Joseph on the nose. The palate is broad and sustained, right from the off. This imposes, and is a kingly wine with its steady assertion of ripe flavour and near red wine structure. This really covers the ground, takes you on an Ordnance Survey, detailed walk. Very good with all the greats of Vieille France cuisine, Escoffier school – pieds et paquets, ris de veau, poulet de Bresse in a morilles sauce – bring ‘em on! Decanting a necessity. It will be much better and more expressive when aged five years or more. Drink from mid-2018 - Drink until 2028-30"
