🌟 An elegant Rhône white that gracefully balances freshness with richness—textured, fragrant, and quietly complex.

👁 In the Glass:
Pale gold with a silvery sheen—bright and alluring.

👃 On the Nose:
Lifted aromas of wet river stones, orange blossom, and fresh almonds. A gentle bouquet unfolds into ripe peach, nectarine skin, and delicate floral hints, underscored by a subtle, flinty mineral edge.

👅 On the Palate:
Supple and textured, yet remarkably refined. Viognier’s stone-fruit opulence and Grenache Blanc’s roundness are beautifully counterbalanced by Roussanne’s citrus zest and grapefruit freshness. A touch of well-integrated oak adds quiet depth, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish.

🍽 Food Pairing:
A natural companion to Mediterranean fare—think grilled sea bream with fennel, herbed chicken, or burrata with citrus-dressed greens. Also lovely with shellfish or a Provençal-style fish stew.

⏳ Enjoyment Window:
Delightful now for its floral lift and creamy texture, but will evolve gracefully over the next 3–5 years.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Cuvée Sainte-Cécile is Rhône white at its best—expressive, layered, and evocative of the sun-drenched Costières terroir. It’s a wine with poise, bringing modern polish to old-world roots, and elevating every sip with quiet confidence.
