The 1992 Cotes du Rhone Belle Ruche blanc is richer and fuller than the 1993, with wonderful vibrancy, loads of flavor, fine acidity, and a lively bouquet. It should be consumed over the next 2-3 years.
Chapoutier's obsession with tiny yields and natural, pure wines that reflect the vineyard's terroir, soil, and varietal aromatic and flavor profile are well-displayed in his current and up-coming white wine releases.
