Luc Baudet Côtes Du Rhône “Rive Droite” Blanc

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

Made with Grenache Blanc and Roussanne grape varietals, the Luc Baudet Côtes du Rhône “Rive Droite” Blanc is one that is marked by the rounded pebbles of its terroir. It is full-bodied and refreshing, and goes down easy.

This white wine has notes of white fruits and good minerality, with fresh hints of pear and lime.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

This wine pairs well with mature, hard cheeses and cured meats. Enjoy it with your charcuterie, especially with Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino Romano, and some prosciutto or bresaola.

It also goes brilliantly with rich fish dishes, like a garlic butter baked salmon with asparagus, or an easy tuna pasta with olives. Try it, too, with pork or poultry. It will be good with pork chops, slow-cooked pulled pork, and chicken tetrazzini.

BETWEEN LAND AND SEA

Between hundred-year-old olive trees and stately oak trees will you find Le Clos des Centenaires. With nature on their side—climate, deep soils, pebbles formed by the Rhône, sands, and clay, the vines that take root and grow are powerful and complex. They give grapes of magnificent quality, like delicate gifts as thanks for its careful and respectful cultivation.

These grapes are then meticulously chosen to create wines that reflect the splendor of its surroundings, and the passion of its makers.
