This is a lesson in white Rhône blends, utilizing the Roussanne and Grenache Blanc base with accents from Picpoul, Clairette, Picardan and Bourboulenc. Aromas of baked orange and almond dust make for a warm nose before dropping into a palate where peach, honey and nut flavors are wrapped in a waxy texture. Serve with roasted chicken.
Wine Tasting Notes
The Esprit de Tablas Blanc is a classic Esprit Blanc immediately offers an appealing nose of poached pear, crystallized pineapple, honeysuckle and a touch of sweet oak. On the palate, luscious and textured, with honey, green apple, and graham cracker flavors, solid acidity, and a little dancing mango-like tropicality from the Picpoul. Fresh and lifted, but long and textured. A charming Esprit Blanc that will be hard to resist young but which should also do beautifully with time in the cellar. Drink now and over the next two decades.
