An elegant tribute to Rhône variety Grenache Blanc. Upright aromas of green apple, gooseberry, lemon and white peach. The palate is taut and pithy, with a grippy sensation and a mild creaminess on the medium finish from extended lees contact. A good autumn white that will complement roasted squash and sage dishes. New to the Majestic range and great to see them championing lesser-known varieties. I'd like to see how this evolves after a few years in bottle. This will be in stores from November.
