Château Beauchêne
Grande Réserve Côtes du Rhône White Rhone Blend
Côtes du Rhône, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
A new style for me.
Nose: meaty, savory, saline…almost some onions. Bagels. Onion bagels??! Mexican food?!? Wow, the Mexican food images really sticks, now I keep smelling tacos…
Taste: heavy, peachy, grapey, sweet onions and herbs, white flowers, honeysuckle, vanilla…almond, apricot. Long finish. I don’t drink a lot of white wine, so my experience (and vocabulary) are both limited here…and I can’t decide if I love it or hate it- it is funky compared to what I am used to…but very complex, and clearly well made stuff. I’ll go 90!

Delicious! Delightfully light and not too sweet. Adding to my regular rotation of favorites.
