Very rare bottling and our price is the lowest in the country. This is a really special bottle of wine made with primarily Clairette which generally is used as a blending grape. After tasting this we can't believe there's not more Clairette being produced. Great aromatics, minerality, and beautiful white fruits. And Robert Parker called it the "Chablis from the Southern Rhone."
The Alary family have been growers in the Rhone valley for 11 generations. Their specialty has been the wines of their home village, Cairanne. The Alary vineyards are found on the choicest parcel of Cairanne, known as the Font D'Estevenas. Here, the latest in this long line of vignerons, Denis Alary, fashions the lineup that has earned him the citation by Robert Parker as "one of the stars of the Cotes du Rhone Village of Cairanne."
Robert Parker 90 Points -- The 2008 Font d'Estevanas blanc (a blend of 90% Clairette and 10% Roussanne) comes across like a Chablis from the Southern Rhone. Crisp minerality intermixed with flower, white currant, nectarine, and grapefruit notes are present in this medium-bodied, elegant, delicious white. This tank-fermented and aged 2008 should be consumed during its first year of life to take advantage of its tremendous aromatic character.
