About the wine:
Well-made, round and textured, with aromas of lemon, floral honey and baking spices. Medium-bodied, with a round, juicy character on the palate and a lively, persistent finish. Drink now.

About the wine:
Made from equal parts roussanne, marsanne and grenache blanc, Languedoc Prestige Blanc 2022 reveals a golden hue and a gorgeous, exotic perfume of ripe quince, honeyed flowers, caramelized orange and toast. Beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied and opulent on the palate, this gorgeous wine offers plenty of fruit and texture while remaining lively, balanced and incredibly satisfying. It will shine on the table and I think it will be best appreciated in the next 2-3 years, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve for longer.
