Producer's Notes:

"The Roussanne-dominant Quintessence Blanc is a chameleon-like similar to the Viognier-based Terrasses Blanc, demonstrating what makes the Ventoux unique in southern France. In warmer parts of the Rhône and on red-clay soils, Roussanne makes rich, dense wines with plenty of alcohol and texture. However, in the chalky parts of the Ventoux and at high elevation, this same variety shows a more northern Rhone character – expressively floral, white peach aromas and flavors, and citrus peel freshness while retaining a lively acidity and sapid minerality."
