Far from being a light and easy-drinking wine, it displays a full-bodied richness and depth while maintaining perfect balance, great finesse, purity, and remarkable precision. This divine white will benefit from a year of bottle aging and, in my opinion, possesses exceptional aging potential of over a decade, although there is no need to age it prematurely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWine Advocate (Robert Parker)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e– Rated 93:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Distenta III is a blend of 33% Chardonnay, 27% Viognier, 24% Gelber Muskateller, 12% Roussanne, and 4% Petit Manseng, the latter two varieties having been co-fermented. Primarily sourced from the Eleven Confessions vineyard, it also includes grapes from The Third Twin and Cumulus parcels. Aged for 23 months, 52% in new French oak barrels and demi-muids, the wine is intensely floral and exuberant, with honeyed and exotic aromas of stone fruit, citrus oil, pine needles, mint, and a noticeable alcoholic presence after aeration. The palate is full and smooth, dominated by a generous array of stone fruit flavors, supported by vibrant acidity. The finale, initially clean and precise, gradually evolves into an intoxicating and persistent sensation.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVinous (Antonio Galloni) – Rated 94:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Distenta III is a wild and exotic white wine. Ginger, passion fruit, spices, and candied lemon mingle harmoniously in the glass. Extended aging on the lees for 8 to 12 months gives it a remarkable texture. This 2021 vintage is rich and smooth, without any heaviness. Intensely aromatic notes linger on the finish. The Distenta III is a magnificent wine in every respect. The blend is composed of 33% Chardonnay, 27% Viognier, 24% Gelber Muskateller, 12% Roussanne, and 4% Petit Manseng. This is the first vintage with a high proportion of Muscat, an approach that proves particularly successful here.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55840708395356,"sku":null,"price":295.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/Sinequanon-DistentaIIIblanc-Etats-Unis_e1ead1d7-59a6-4e49-9a12-04f9516876b8.png?v=1761752335","url":"https:\/\/www.lebaroudeurduvin.com\/en-sk\/products\/sine-qua-non-distenta-iii-white-usa","provider":"Le Baroudeur du Vin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
