Clos Bagatelle
Saint Chinian Blanc 2010

AOC Saint Chinian

A white wine made from Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Carignan Blanc with a little Vermentino this wine has a lovely character with interesting floral aromas including cistus and bergamot, with lovely soft yellow fruits. This all comes through in the mouth, with the fruit more to the fore. Still young this wine is well balanced and has the potential to be very interesting!
