Classic Beginning to end

Posted on January 1, 2022 by Roger Harmston Posted in Terroir Leave a comment

Christmas dinner was a good way to share this great white blend. 

Lots of our favourite aromas and flavours come to the forefront. Tropical and Balanced.

Grenache Blanc and Viognier grown in the Gard, blended with Roussanne and Clairette grown in the Vaucluse.

It’s easy not to let this one hang around – best had when fresh as it arrives at your favourite dairy.

Medium-bodied, just dry enough.  There’s not a lot of complexity here … but it’s classic Rhone.

Saint Vincent, born during the 3rd century in Spain, is considered the patron saint of winegrowers. Vincent means triumphant in Latin.

We were in a different hood for our daily hoof and I thought I would check out what the Caddy Bay Private Liquor Store had to offer. 


I chose it because the blend looked interesting.  Grenache Blanc (part of the Chateauneuf du Pape blend), Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin, Vermentino, Chasan and Mauzac


This Paul Mas vineyard hails from the Aude Valley of Languedoc and produces good value at a reasonable price.


It’s not citrusy, not sharp.  It went very nicely with baked halibut steaks.


Claude Val white.  $12.99
