Château Vessière - Costières de Nîmes White 2018

Château Vessière - Costières de Nîmes Blanc 2018

Médaille d'Or

Concours Paris

(Notes from the 2017 vintage)

Château Vessière has added a unique white wine to its Tradition range. Made from a blend of 75% Roussanne and 25% Grenache Blanc grapes, obtained through skin maceration, this white wine reveals a delicately fragrant nose of white flowers, pear, and citrus fruits. Very fresh on the palate, it has a beautifully controlled roundness, echoing the aromas present on the nose. A hint of minerality carries through to the finish. Very pleasant!
