Get to know: Jean Didier Colombard Ugni Blanc
Tasting Note
Refreshing and thirst quenching Southern French blend that has an aromatic Sauvignon Blanc like quality that makes it easy to enjoy. Aromas of lime and lychee with a subtle hint of white pepper on the nose. The palate is juicy and zesty with a bit of ripe tropical fruit on a well balanced palate with a vivid finish that leaves you wanting more.
Try this with a lentil salad with walnuts and feta or simply on its own.
Kate Says
"This is just the kind of lighter, easy drinking wine that's a reliable option for a mid-week glass after work or when a friend pops by for lunch. Fresh, fruity and delicious."
Producer Info
Making the most of the character of Southern French varietals and using modern winemaking techniques, Xavier Roger produces a diverse portfolio of wines that are a superb example of the quality that is being produced in the South of France at affordable prices. The grapes are picked during the night, destemmed and go through skin contact maceration which enhances the structure and complexity of the wine. A gentle and meticulous pressing leads to a soft extraction to preserve the aromatic juices. Matured briefly in stainless-steel tanks to keep a fruity style.
