2023 Bieler Père et Fils Côtes du Rhône Blanc 'La Jassine'

Yellow peach, Honeycrisp apple, and orange blossom lift out front, grounded by chamomile, subtle honey, and wet limestone. The palate balances decadent orchard fruit against vibrant, snap-dry acidity, finishing clean with lingering citrus zest and stony minerality.

Built on rare 70-year-old Clairette Rose vines blended with small portions of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. The fruit is cool-fermented in neutral oak barrels and stainless steel tanks to build a round, creamy mouthfeel without masking aromatics or natural freshness.

Old-vine parcels in Carmignan on the right bank of the Rhône River. Vines are rooted in deep red clay packed with limestone chunks, where scorching summer heat gives way to cool nights that lock in crisp natural acidity.
