2024 Chante Cigale Cicada Blanc
Cicada takes its name from the famed ‘singing cicadas’ of Provence and the wine too sings of the warm vineyards of the south.
An unusual blend of Grenache Blanc (70%), Picpoul Blanc (20%) and Viognier (10%). Sourced from clay limestone soils in Richerenes in the Vaucluse for the Grenache Blanc and Picpoul, with the Viognier sourced in the Northern Rhône (so the wine is classified as Vin de France). Vinified in stainless steel, with a short maceration of one week. Alex Favier then puts the final blend together.
Tasting Note: An easy-drinking, unoaked, classic french-style table wine. Citrus and pear on the nose. There is nice weight on the palate, more ripe pear and some silky minerality on the finish.
Pairing Suggestions: Delicious with mildly spiced coconut Thai or Vietnamese dishes or with grilled mackerel on the BBQ.
Origin: Languedoc and Rhône, France
Alcohol: 13%
Blend: Grenache Blanc, Picpoul Blanc and Viognier
