A blend of 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne, the 2017 Crozes Hermitage Blanc was fermented in stainless steel and demi-muids (half in each). It's plump and round, with ripe notes of melon, pear and pineapple and a luscious, silky texture. It finishes long, thanks to a refreshing hint of citrus zest.

Bright plantain, pineapple and yellow apple gelée notes give this a fun and bouncy feel, with a flash of heather knitting the elements together on the finish. Drink now. 1,250 cases made, 300 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Crozes-Hermitage Select to Add
