SOUTHERN / AMERICAN / PACIFIC WINE & SPIRITS® Chateau Pesquie Cotes du Ventoux – 6057234792607

About This Wine:
Paul and Edith Chaudière started this cuvee in 1990 and chose the name “Quintessence” to highlight the concentration of these wine essentially made of Syrah and the careful selection of most of the best plots of the Estate. Indeed, such a name implies extreme rigor, and not every vintage can achieve a Quintessence!

Tasting Notes:
Golden white in color with a complex nose of white flower and exotic fruit aromas. A round and balanced wine with natural freshness and a powerful aromatic intensity. Pairs well with truffles, white meats, fish, and refined goat cheeses.

91 Points – Wine Enthusiast:
“This blend of 80% Roussanne and 20% Clairette is rich and round, sumptuous and honeyed. It’s largely barrel fermented, and carries a hint of tannin through the finish, which actually helps balance out the wine’s lushness. Drink now.” – JC (12/15/2011)
