100% Clairette on 2016 Vintage. Lemon zest, peach and apricot with pineapple aftertaste. Touch of honey note with savoriness. Round mouthfeel but still has great minerality. Dry, med plus acidity. A tasty and elegant clairette.

Medium in body. Slightly round mouthfeel but balanced by crisp acidity. Some bitter almond notes and a long mineral finish. A touch of funky earthiness. Very enjoyable at a great price point.

Phenomenal, especially considering the price. Tangerines, lemon zest, white flowers and great freshness.

Every time I have varietal clairette, I'm reminded why it's a blending grape, or a vermouth workhorse. Even a hipster effort, picked earlier, is drinkable but still just kinda flabby and uninteresting. Usually dig most of Texier's stuff, I'll pass on this. Honestly, wasn't expecting a lot. 🥱🍏🌰
