This beautiful cuvée, a harmonious blend of Roussanne and Viognier, has a powerful, complex nose, marked by aromas of exotic fruits. The palate is full-bodied, fresh and elegant, with plenty of structure. A very pleasant, fresh and precise white, ideal with snails, for example...

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Domaine rated (2022 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Château des Tourettes has a lovely vineyard on the Apt plateau. Maine and Jean-Marie Guffens have restructured almost the entire vineyard, asserting their determination to create a beautiful terroir by replanting with massal selections. The wines are faithful to Jean-Marie Guffens' style, always offering the right balance between ripe grapes and mineral tension on the finish. Jean-Marie and Maine refocus production on whites, and put an end to the Guffens du Sud négoce.
