Tasting note

Côtes du Rhône white blend should bring pear, yellow apple and honeysuckle, with a subtle floral aroma. The 2015 Libre Expression is expected to feel rounded and textured, its ripe orchard fruit balanced by fresh acidity and a gentle herbal note. Beyond its listed horizon, it may finish more softly, with dried fruit and light spice lingering in place of youthful citrus brightness.
