The fresher, more aromatic of the two back-vintage Gonon whites here, from a cool year that suits Marsanne well. The fruit comes off the Coteau des Oliviers — the olive-tree slope — on a terrace above Tournon, where the brothers' father Pierre planted the Marsanne in 1958 and the Roussanne in 1974. Jean and Pierre Gonon farm it organically, co-ferment the two grapes with native yeasts and raise the wine on its lees in seasoned oak. A wet, cool July and August in 2014 gave way to a fine September, and the wines came in lower in alcohol and unusually perfumed; at twelve years this one has kept its lift while the texture has turned nutty and savory. From a private cellar; drinking beautifully now and for several years yet.

Antonio Galloni

93 points

"Light, bright yellow. Poached pear, white peach, honey and lemon pith on the intensely perfumed, mineral-accented nose. Pliant, deeply concentrated pit and citrus fruit and honeysuckle flavors are complemented by hints of succulent herbs and fennel; bitter quinine adds back-end cut. Closes with powerful punch and serious persistence, leaving behind a note of candied citrus fruits. This bottling has an admirable track record for cellaring." —Josh Raynolds
