Last Tasted 7/91
This curiosity, served to me by Chef Jullien at the restaurant La Beaugraviere in the Rhone Valley, is not for everyone. Amazingly, the wine was totally clean and pure to smell, with heavy, smoky, earthy, buttery aromas that were followed by even heavier, thicker, glycerin-laden, weighty flavors. There was considerable acidity, but the wine still possessed remarkable freshness and amazing fruit. I cannot say I found it to be complex, but given its amazingly youthful condition, as well as its pure power and intensity, I was sufficiently impressed. Rayas makes one of the most idiosyncratic white wines from anywhere in the world, and I wonder if the newer vintages, which are made in exactly the same manner, will last 45 or more years?
