2024 Cotes du Rhone les Abeilles Blanc, Jean Luc Colombo

“Les Abeilles” (The Bees) is a complex, fresh white with floral and crisp fruit aromas and a supple, harmonious palate. It is an unusual blend of Clairette and Roussanne.

"Here’s a very typical white Cotes-du-Rhone with enough lemony freshness on the well-rounded, medium- to full-bodied palate to balance well. Plenty of candied citrus and blanched almond flavors plus a touch of ripe apricots. Balanced, creamy finish. A cuvee of 80% clairette and 20% roussanne. Drink now. Screw cap."  James Suckling
