E. Guigal
Côtes du Rhône White Rhone Blend
Côtes du Rhône, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Aromatic. Honey and stone fruit. Acidity keeping up. Nothing too oily about this, full bodied but with freshness.

Writing retrospectively so I’m going off memory here. This wasn’t as impressive a wine as Guigal’s red CDR, but still a pleasant if slightly unbalanced white. At this price point, however, I’d take Yves Cuilleron’s IGP Rousanne from a little further north any day.

Over delivery as usually. Majority Viognier blend, which is surprising. There is a subdued floral quality, but lots of freshness and minerality with strong Provençal herb character.

A blend of 60% Viognier, 15% Roussanne, 10% Marsanne, 8% Clairette, 5% Bourboulenc & 2% Grenache Blanc. Pale lemon color with aromas of floral, stone and tropical fruits. On the palate honeysuckle, peach and apricot flavors with medium acidity on good balance. Good structure, elegant and rich on soft finish. Great value.

White Rhône blend of course. Floral, light, acidic, needs balance. Maybe my expectations were too high.
