The medium-bodied 2007 Cotes du Rhone Belleruche blanc is a crisp, fresh, lively effort displaying a Chablis-like minerality as well as citrus notes. It is best drunk over the next 1-2 years. Michel Chapoutier continues to expand his considerable empire throughout southern France. Recently he purchased Jean Marchand’s Domaine des Pontifes in Chateauneuf du Pape, so I would not be surprised to see a third luxury cuvee of Chateauneuf du Pape emerge from this passionate biodynamic producer of Rhone wines. The less expensive Chapoutier offerings continue to increase in quality.Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847)-604-8900

This is a fresh, fruit-driven white loaded with pineapple and pear aromas and flavors. It's medium bodied, making it suitable for pairing with a wide array of dishes, and finishes crisp and clean.——J.C.(4/1/2010)—— 86
