2019 Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc “Pantomine”
Maxime François Laurent
This new white to the lineup, a marriage of Bourboulenc and Grenache Blanc, clocks in at a refreshing 12.5% alcohol. You’ll find the classic perfume of a good southern Rhône white, including stone fruit, hay, and fragrant mimosa blossoms. With no rough edges, it beckons you to follow Maxime-François’s advice: “Drink it when you are very, very thirsty!”

A good doctor prescribed the wine of Nuits-Saint-Georges to the Sun King, Louis XIV, when he suffered an unknown maladie. When the king’s health was restored the tasty remedy enjoyed a vogue at court. Lord, send me a doctor like that!
