Tasting note
Grenache Blanc 50%, Clairette 50%.
Dense and savoury on the nose and then – kerpow – a vibrant syrup, though not sweet. 'Here you’re in a deeper armchair,' smiled Reynaud as he watched us tasting it. Honey, yet raciness too. So rich. We congratulated him. 'It’s nature', he shrugged. (JR)
Score: 18.5
