Off Topic – E Guigal Côtes du Rhône Blanc 2015 – $$
Pale brilliant gold colour. 13.5% alc. 65% Viognier, 15% Rousanne, 8% Marsanne, balance of Bourboulenc and white Grenache
Floral nose of white peach and mandarin, with honey supporting.
Richness and body in the mouth. Flavours of apricots, the unctuousness of honey. A pure elegant and balanced wine. The weight of the Viognier is nicely moderated by the Rousanne and Marsanne.
Like a good Condrieu.
