Crisp and quaffable, the 2016 Mont Gravet Côtes de Gascogne Blanc is made from 100% Colombard—the offspring of Chenin blanc and Gouais blanc. It is classically found in the Gascony region and here it's pale lemon yellow in the glass, with wholly amicable aromas of underripe pineapple, yellow apple and pear. In the mouth, linear acidity punctuates a similar fruit profile, with a welcome and added dash of lemon pith. Nice QPR. Sample

This is a bargain quaffer for summer. At $7.99 it is light with light acidity, no citrus but nice soft fruit. I rated it 90 because it is really good and it is priced so low. This is a good one to put in your white "rotation".

Decent quaffer but not remarkable for flavor or value.

Clear straw. Mild lemon nose. Full, smooth, grapefruit tang. Simple and pleasant, nice with a chicken pomodoro.
