Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

This wine has floral, citrus and tropical fruit aromas, with a fine, mineral finish, making this a wonderful wine for summer or as an

aperitif. 

Lovely with oysters, scallops, fresh pasta dishes or with parma ham, tapenade and olives.

    COMMENTARY: The 2017 Font du Font Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc is an exotic and nifty wine. TASTING NOTES: This wine is bright, active, and delicious. Its aromas and flavors of enticing ripe fruit and mineral notes should pair well with pan-seared scallops over fresh pasta. (Tasted: March 12, 2019, San Francisco, CA)

Full-bodied and flavorful, white Rhône blends originate from France’s Rhône Valley. Today these blends are also becoming popular in other regions. Typically some combination of Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne and Viognier form the basis of a white Rhône blend with varying degrees of flexibility depending on the exact appellation. Somm Secret—In the Northern Rhône, blends of Marsanne and Roussanne are common but the south retains more variety. Marsanne, Roussanne as well as Bourboulenc, Clairette, Picpoul and Ugni Blanc are typical.

Typically thought of as a baby Chateâuneuf-du-Pape, the term Côtes du Rhône actually doesn’t merely apply to the flatter outskirts of the major southern Rhône appellations, it also includes the fringes of well-respected northern Rhône appellations. White wines can be produced under the appellation name, but very little is actually made.

The region offers some of the best values in France and even some first-rate and age-worthy reds. Red wine varieties include most of the Chateâuneuf-du-Pape varieties like Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Cinsault, and Counoise, as well as Carignan. White grapes grown include Grenache blanc, Roussanne and Viognier, among others.
