Professional Review: LEs Copains, French for "the buddies", is a term that symbolizes this exquisite combination of Rhone-style varietals. McPherson Cellars is known for creating old world blends with a modern approach and this is no exception. Soft, rich, and balanced, Les Copains embodies the award winning wines that Kim McPherson is renown for producing. Tough day? "C'est la vie!" Enjoy a bottle of this beautiful wine with your best buddies. Les Copains is a proprietary blend of old world cultivars, comprised of 45% Viognier, 35% Roussanne, 16% Grenache Blanc and 4% Marsanne.
My Review: I liked the nose on this wine. I was sugared, smelled exactly like a sweet summer sugarcane with hints of fruity/bouquet. It was medium bodied with a good mid palate and a great finish but was a little sharp at the end. That might have been just because the bottle was open for a little too long while being served. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
