WTN: Farge Wite Rhone Blend '20....(short/boring)

Tried the White Rhone Blend last night:
1. Thomas Farge LesJardins de Chavagnac IGP: Collines Rhodaniennes (12.5%; Marsanne/Roussanne/Viognier; Aged in SS tanks; MartinesWines/Novato/CA) Guy&Thomas Farge/St.Jean de Muzols 2020: Med.gold color; rather appley/Marsanne light floral/honeysuckle/honeyed quite fragrant nose; lightly tart/tangy fairly strong appley/pear/Marsanne light Viog/floral/pear slight stony/earthy quite attractive White Rhone blend flavor w/ slight tangy/metallic finish; quite a nice blend that resembles some a St.Joseph Blanc but more fruit & less stony minerality. $30.00 (SFW&S)

More tittlefrick from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. Not a producer I'm famliar with. Thought it a quite attractive White Rhone blend that reminded me a lot of some of the White Rhone blends Bob Lindquist used to make under the Qupe label, but not the oak signature of that wine.
