2022 La Croix de Bila-Haut Blanc Côtes du Roussillon A.O.C.

2022 La Croix de Bila-Haut Blanc is Mediterranean sunshine in a glass. This white is a juicy and refreshing blend of Roussanne, Marsanne, and Macabeu (Viura) crafted by a prestigious, centuries-old winery. This exquisite blend is presented by M. Chapoutier, which has had winemaking roots in Southern France since 1808. In the glass, this white reveals a pale yellow color with green tints. This Grenache Blanc-driven wine is medium-full in body with generous flavor. Floral and citrus aromas hint at the luscious palate, with juicy peach notes leading to a rounded mouthfeel complemented by medium acidity. The finish is refreshing with a pinch of saltiness that expresses the wine’s minerality. This blend will shine alongside fresh seafood, bouillabaisse, tapas, and salads. It’s also complementary to richly spiced dishes like chicken satay or a Moroccan tagine.
