Laurent Combier Blanc, Domaine Combier

Whites Rhones are sometimes underestimated, and it is a mistake. They have this depth and palette of aromas that only Provence can compete with while being a better terroir on paper. Laurent Combier Crozes hermitage is an approachable, aromatic, fresh white iconic of Rhone.

TASTING NOTE

The wine has a seductive nose revealing notes of almonds, white flowers, white peaches, verveine, sourdough, stones, and white pepper. It’s aromatic and velvety with a very balanced palate. Its fresh acidity and minerality found its counterparts with plenty of white flowers and white stone fruit aromas providing a more decadent feel to it. Voluptuous and succulent but remains airy and succulent. Vivid with a stony finish with a sapid aftertaste.
