The 2022 Côtes Du Rhône Les Claux Blanc is based on 30% Grenache Blanc, 30% Clairette, 30% Roussanne, and 10% Bourboulenc, and this cuvée is always a rock-solid white. Golden apples, honeyed flowers, blanched almonds, and some subtle, richer, creamy nuances all define this beautifully textured, medium-bodied, balanced white that’s superb on its own yet will absolutely shine on the dinner table. It should have 2-4 years of prime drinking if well stored.
