Wine of the Week: Winter white wines

WTOP selected Guigal Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2018 as a great white wine to enjoy this winter. Writer Scott Greenberg explains the characteristics that he looks for in a winter wine are “relatively straightforward. It’s really all about structure, structure, structure.”

He says he often favors Rhone varietals, which is why the Guigal Cotes du Rhone Blanc tops his list. “This solid white wine is a blend of Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne.”

Continuing, “It is intensely fruity, rich and elegantly balanced and packed with delicious stone fruit characteristics (think ripe peach and nectarine), orange marmalade, honeysuckle and white flowers. It is capped off with a dollop of white peach on the soft finish.” Read the full story HERE
