Côtes du Rhône “Saint-François” – organic 2023

AOP Côtes du Rhône White

Tasting

A brilliant pale yellow colour with green highlights. On the nose, fresh aromas of lily of the valley and Williams pear. Very expressive and generous with notes of canary melon. A long, mouth-watering finish.

Food & wine pairings

Risotto with porcini mushrooms, Veal blanquette

Detailed information

Vintage

The dry, mild weather of winter continued into spring. The rain arrived just as the buds began to open and the grapes were emerging, delaying the cycle somewhat but still allowing the vines to flower beautifully. The vines resisted the record heatwave in the second half of August. The harvest, which took place quite late, was still very hot and dry. The grapes harvested were perfectly healthy overall, with concentrated berries. All in all, a generous, late 2023 vintage with a particularly aromatic, elegant and fresh profile.
