Maison Les Alexandrins Saint Joseph Blanc 0.75 2019

Region : Northern Rhone        Saint Joseph was originally called “Vin de Tournon”. The monks who lived in this little village used to produce wine from the vineyard at the top of the hill behind the village.     Grape varieties : Marsanne        A pale yellow colour with beautiful shiny undertones. At first, the nose is discreet, elegant, then after opening up, the wine reveals aromas of citrus fruit and very fresh white flowers. On the palate, the wine reveals a nice tension, brought by the granite terroir, and a richness that the aging in wood has developed.  Perfect combination with grilled fish with a slightly lemony sauce.
