Clos Saint-Joseph 2005 Villars-sur-Var Blanc de Blancs White (Côtes de Provence)

Country: France / Villars-sur-Var Blanc de Blancs
Variety: White Blend Provence
Winery: Clos Saint-Joseph / Côtes de Provence

Mainly Rolle, this is a plump, melon- and peach-scented white that also features hints of almond and licorice. The fruit is almost honeyed at times, yet still retains a sense of freshness, with some chalky minerality on the finish.
