  Producer: E. Guigal Region: Côtes du Rhône, Rhône, France Blend: 60% Viognier, 15% Roussanne, 10% Marsanne, 8 % Clairette, 5% Bourboulenc, 2% Grenache Blanc Year: 2020    Jeb Dunnuck, 90 Points "Always a winner, especially when you consider the volume produced, the 2019 Côtes du Rhône Blanc reveals a vivid gold hue as well as beautiful notes of crushed citrus, honeyed peach, and white flowers to go with a medium-bodied, crisp, clean style on the palate. With good acidity and a dry finish, it’s going to shine on the dinner table and keep nicely for 2-3 years. It’s a smoking value."  Winemaker Notes:  "Yellow gold, clear and brilliant. Freshness marked by the distinctive aromas of Viognier ;white flowers, apricot, acacia and white peach. Fruity with plenty of richness and body. A well-rounded wine with elegance, strength and balance."  Alcohol: 14.5%  Sustainably grown.    *Price and availability in store may vary. Vintage date may differ than pictured.
