This was a lovely little wine. I'm not terribly familiar with the Clairette grape but this was a friendly, aromatic wine with apple and honey aromas. Quite rich and less austere than my idea of Texier's wines but not at all over the top - that must be the grape, not Texier, that brings in this uncommon richness? Unfortunately I haven't had a Texier in years since I'm no longer in the wine business and these aren't available here easily. But it was nice to reacquaint myself with this producer. I wish we had more than this available here.
