Score – 91/100 – L’Atout du Pique Blanc – Matt Walls/Decanter

 

Matt Walls' Decanter selection of the Best Côtes du Rhône Villages of December 2023

"A rare 100% pure Grenache Blanc that combines freshly cut white pear and white
flowers on the nose. A mild citrus note on the palate provides lift, then a white bread
yeastiness on the finish. A very Mediterranean white with its broadness on the
palate and low acidity. Not a wine with a strong aromatic profile or assertive
character, but has a highly enjoyable individual style. 45-year-old vines, matured on
the lees without stirring. Biodynamic."
