Tasting Note

The Côtes Du Rhône Grande Réserve Blanc is solid. Based on 25% each of Grenache Blanc, Clairette, and Roussanne, with the balance Bourboulenc and other permitted varieties, it has plenty of lemon curd, tangerines, and honeyed flower notes as well as a clean style on the palate. It's nicely balanced, with good acidity and a crisp finish.
