2 delicious whites from France and Italy that are dry, crisp and refreshing.
Chante Cigale, Cicada, Rhone x3
An unusual blend of Viognier (30%), Picpoul Blanc (30%) and Grenache Blanc (40%). Sourced from clay limestone soils in Richerenes in the Vaucluse for the Grenache Blanc and Picpoul, with the Viognier sourced in the Northern Rhône (so the wine is classified as Vin de France).
Easy-drinking, unoaked and mouth-filling white with peach and apricot aromas on the nose, with a fresh, bright finish.
Monte Schiavo, Ruviano Verdicchio, Marche x3
Fresh zesty nose with apricot and orchard fruit aromas, and a hint of white flower and citrus. The palate has minerality and texture with ripe stone fruit and grapefruit characters, refreshing lemon citrus acidity, a touch of salinity, and a crisp finish.
