Michel Gassier Château de Nages JT White 2015

Description

The top white of the estate is the 2015 Costières de Nîmes Blanc JT, and this big, rich, decadent beauty will stand side by side a Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc that costs three times its price. Completely barrel-fermented and a blend of Roussanne, Viognier and Grenache Blanc, it gives up classy notes of sautéed peaches, white flowers, pineapple and a hint of citrus in its medium to full-bodied, rich, voluptuous personality that stays clean and fresh. Drink it over the coming 2-4 years. Drink date: 2016-2020. Score - 93. (Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com, Dec. 30, 2016)
