The Domaine de la Ville Rouge Cuvee Nathan Crozes-Hermitage Blanc appears a straw gold color with an intense nose of white-fleshed fruit (peaches). Fresh and balanced on the palate with roundness.

90% Marsanne, 10% Roussanne. Pressing the whole harvest (for better juice drainage). Place in the cold for 24 hours then settle. Tonnage of the musts into barrels for fermentation and aging with stirring to give “fat” to the wine, aging for 6 months.

Wine Advocate Review:
An attractive hint of white pepper appears on the nose of the 2020 Crozes Hermitage Blanc Cuvee Nathan, which sits atop ripe pear, melon and citrus notes. This 60-40 blend of Marsanne and Roussanne is medium-bodied, and while not overly rich or concentrated, is balanced and very drinkable, with a slightly chalky feel to the finish.
