Clos Marsalette Blanc 2025

Pineapple and quince notes bring a tropical touch created by the dry hot vintage summer, though thankfully without veering into tin can territory. Fresh and easygoing on the palate, I appreciate a likeable simplicity, even if it runs a bit short on real zip. That said, a wine to enjoy over a summer picnic. Drinking window: 2026-2036.
