La Bécassonne Côtes du Rhône White Rhone Blend
Côtes du Rhône, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
GOSH this blend of Roussanne, Clairette and Grenache Blanc makes for a poised, silky and aromatic but elegant bottle I’d imagine paying twice as much for. The nose promises stone fruit and incense adventure, while the palate is cozy, adding warming spice, lanolin and honeydew melon, along side hints of wet stone to keep it all fresh. J’adore, je affor(d).

Not bad at all. A little heavy on minerals, so not very smooth, buy very tasty. Heavier than you think it will be - like many Italians...like my prom experience...TMI...

12 – 20– 22. $16 can’t expect any more from a CDR white blend. Rousanne predominant? Very interesting.
