WTN: Texier CDR Blanc

Texier 2008 Cotes du Rhone Blanc ($14.99) - a nice wine with a minerality that sets it apart from most white Rhones, tropical aromas on day one/muted tropical aromas on day two, medium bodied/better structure on day two, dry finish

[David M. Bueker]

Yet another good value wine from Eric. I'm shocked I tell you, shocked!

Eric - if you are looking in, what are the percentages for the grape varieties in this wine?

Clairette > 50%, marsanne and grenache blanc at the same proportion for the rest. Frankly, I cannot be more precise, because we harvest every thing at the same time. So the marsanne are ripe, the clairette slightly unripe and the grenache very unripe!!! Malos are completed on this wine. 100% concrete.

A concrete blonde eh?

What no lovers of 90s rock?
