This white Côtes du Rhône is a great value wine for any aperitif or meal. It is made of a subtle blend of various local grapes providing concentrated flavours of white fruit and flowers, while remaining crisp and fresh. A short stay in oak barrels brings in a toasted hint for a greater personality. An admirable wine, especially for this price range.

![]() | 88/100 "The juicy, racy styled 2015 Cotes du Rhone Blanc is another terrific value from a vintage that’s packed with values. Crisp peach, under-ripe pineapple, honeysuckle and a touch of tangerine all emerge from this medium-bodied, fresh and crisp white that doesn’t lack for intensity or length. Drink it over the coming year." | ||||||
![]() | Bronze Medal at Decanter World Wine Awards 2016 "A solid and fleshy wine with a white flower nose and weighty stone fruits and flint on the palate. The finish is savoury with lingering green peach characters." | ||||||
![]() | 87/100 "Bright honeysuckle, jasmine and white peach aromas lead the way, followed by a yellow apple note on the open-knit finish. Drink now. " |
