Domaine Boutinot 'La Fleur Solitaire' Côtes du Rhône

A proper white Côtes du Rhône: fresh, medium-bodied, and vinous. The nose is delicate, with a waft of fennel tops and hints of hedgerow flowers. The flavors are nuanced and refined, rather than overt. Careful use of oak adds texture and structure without masking the freshness of this very drinkable white.
