Rhône Paradox Blanc harmoniously blends Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. This year, the wine once again expresses itself with freshness and aromatic richness. It unreservedly reveals aromas of fresh fruit (yellow peach, pear) combined with notes of white flowers. Good body supported by a fresh and invigorating finish underscores the whole. Superb!

Rated estate (2012 guide) 3 stars (Very good production)

About the estate:

Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still heavily influenced by the cooperative. Attached to the Costières de Nîmes, he set up shop at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of cuvée: Rhône Paradox, with its freshness and purity of fruit; Compostelle, the result of sorting old vines and grapes from the best plots. And finally Armonio, born from an encounter with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, notably)."
