GT WINE Magazine Top Tasting – Rhône Whites

Description

The GT WINE tasting panel keep looking for new themes and this one fell in our lap. Marsanne and roussanne and blends thereof made up the core of the tasting – we decided to sideline 100% viognier to keep the number of wines to a manageable level.  That said, viognier surfaced in many of the blends as did grenache blanc, clairette and some bourboulenc. The local wines stood up well with value a key to both the domestic offerings and the Cotes du Rhone Blancs. Come along and taste for yourself. It will be a seated tasting for 15, so jump on-line soon.
