2021 Chateau de l'Ou Cotes du Roussillon Blanc

Séverine and Philippe’s wines all sounded so delicious, we decided to include a second wine from their portfolio in this month’s case.  This is a unique blend of Grenache Blanc (50%), Grenache Gris (30%) and Roussanne (20%).  Each variety was vinified separately, spending up to 5 days on the skins, which imparts a full texture and a subtle peachy hue to the wine.  Fermentation took place in stainless steel to retain the purity of the fruit and as a result the wine is beautifully fresh. 

This is a refreshing white, full of crisp notes of lime and white fruit aromas, which combine perfectly with the peachy and textured palate.  A well-balanced white, that works well as an apéritif and also makes a great match for roast chicken and mushroom dishes.
