2022 was a year that made things easy for winemakers on the northern Rhône. First-class quality of ripe grapes that still retain their freshness and all in satisfactory quantities.

Les Alexandrins cuvees its white Crozes-Hermitage from 60% Marsanne and 40% Roussanne. The wine is aged for 6 months in 50% demi-muids (600L barrels and 50% in egg-shaped concrete tanks, which brings on the one hand the very delicate wood tone and on the other hand the optimal balance.

The Crozes-Hermitage Blanc from Les Alexandrins combines its creamy fullness with a good bite on the palate, it is juicy and structured. An ideal image of a Crozes-Hermitage.

The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Blanc has a bright and clear green-yellow color. The bouquet shows hints of wood barrel notes, white fruits and floral notes. On the palate it is particularly supple, round and rich in extracts, in the long finish a touch of acid balances the rather opulent wine, so that despite its fullness it remains very stimulating and makes you want to take another sip.

Try this wine with shellfish, grilled fish, risotto with mushrooms, poultry or cheese.
