Hermitage Blanc 2008, Domaine du Colombier
Pale yellow and translucent in the glass, the nose is subdued with hints of peach, spice and even a slightly herbal note. The palate is broad and restrained; a serious, structured wine, but with an attractive, gentle acidity. Quite broad and full, it will repay a little more cellaring. This is very impressive.

In the mid-1990s, Philippe du Roy of Châteauneuf's famed Domaine de Villeneuve joined forces with consultant Philippe Cambie, seeking to produce 'authentic' (rather than flashy, souped-up and overblown) southern Rhône wines that owed their character to natural processes. Minimal intervention is the mantra here. Their blend of perfumed white Rhône grapes is ample and silky-textured, with aromas of pears, citrus and pineapple. Perfect with chicken caesar salad.
