More Rhone, north and south (La cave du Théâtre Clermont Ferrand France): Notes of anis and fennel, shows really nice herbal and south of France character, like the best of Aix or Bandol, when vermentino/rolle is not just a bunch of exotic fruit basket. 95% clairette Rose and Bourboulenc, the palate is crisp and balanced between a mouth filling Rhone style and the tartness needed to help it deal with the alcohol level and ripeness. Those varieties are really a great deal now in the hot years of southern Rhone style whites... loved it
