This is always an exciting white wine from Paso, and 2022's blend of 56% Grenache Blanc, 39% Viognier and 5% Roussanne is one of the best yet. Aromas of white flower, citrus pith and wet stone lead from the nose into a palate layered in bright, clean flavors of nectarine and chalk. Very grippy in texture, the flavors manage to stay light and delicate yet ever expressive.

Bright citrus, tangerine, honeyed flowers, and some chalky mineral notes all emerge from the 2022 Epoch White, a crisp, medium-bodied, vibrant white based on 56% Grenache Blanc, 39% Viognier, and the rest Roussanne. Aged in a combination of concrete, foudre, and French oak barrels and puncheons, it's one of those whites that plays in the racy, refreshing end of the spectrum yet still brings texture, richness, and length. It's beautifully done.
