Score 93/100 · Drink 2014-2018, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Apr 2014

Easily one of the benchmark whites of the region, the 2012 IGP Pays d’Herault Blanc comes from limestone soils and is an eclectic blend of 20% Viognier, 20% Chardonnay, 20% Petit Manseng, 20% Chenin Blanc and the balance a mix of varieties. A serious effort that has both concentration and structure, it offers gorgeous minerality in its citrus blossom, floral and ripe orchard fruit-driven bouquet. Medium-bodied, with beautiful purity and focus, it deserves a classy meal, and should drink beautifully for 3-4 years, possibly longer, although I have no experience with aged examples of this cuvee. Don’t miss a chance to try this superb white. Various importers, including Beaune Imports, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 559-1040, The Country Vintner, Ashland, VA; tel. (804) 752-3670; and Southern Wine and Spirits d.b.a. Lauber Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 268–8033
