2010 Côtes du Rhône Villages Blanc, Domaine Rouvre Saint Léger, Laudun
Made from 100% Viognier. Attractively floral on the nose, this exudes notes of apricot and greengage. The palate shows a vein of mineral freshness that gives backbone and structure to a core of ripe, stone fruit. Nuances of white flowers and a touch of white pepper give this a delightful complexity, elevating it above many other wines of this level. Excellent.
