Producer notes: "70% Marsanne and 30% Roussanne, from a clay-limestone soil. The domaine is farmed organically. We look for elegant and perfumed white wines. To achieve this we carry out green harvesting to control the yields, and pick as late as possible. The must is lightly sulphured because we do not use any industrial yeasts, leaving the indigenous yeasts time to extract the varietal aromas and create a rich, full texture. Our white wines are aged exclusively in tank to allow both varietals to reach full expression. The white Crozes Hermitage 2008 displays a complex and powerful character, dominated by almonds and stone fruit; the palate is rich and full, with good structure. Serve with fresh water fish or as an excellent accompaniment to sauces."
