Paul Jaboulet Aîné Domaine Mule Blanche Crozes-Hermitage 2020 (75cl)

A white Crozes-Hermitage from the Northern Rhône, made from Marsanne and Roussanne as the appellation requires. It suits a table split between Chardonnay drinkers and those wanting something fuller. Serve it cool but not ice cold, around 10 to 12 degrees, so the texture shows. It pairs well with roast chicken, steamed fish with ginger and spring onion, or pork chops. Marsanne and Roussanne whites typically show white peach, pear and a touch of honeysuckle, with a rounder, almost waxy texture and gentler acidity than most northern-climate whites.
