Château Rives-Blanques, Occitania Mauzac Blanc, Limoux, 2016

Tasted by: Rosemary George MW
Drinking Window: 2018 - 2022
A rare example of the traditional grape variety of Limoux as a still wine. A fresh nose with some herbal notes, and salty fruit on the palate, with the typical bitter finish of Mauzac. Fine example of an often-decried grape variety.
