Francois Villard, Cote-Rotie "Le Gallet Blanc", 2023 so111423 savoie roundup offer alongside delicate green herb notesVillard's Le Gallet Blanc references the iconic pale pebbles of the Cte Blonde, a terroir that produces refined, floral Cte Rties. Made primarily from Syrah with a trace of Viognier, this wine undergoes 90% whole cluster fermentation and 18 months in mostly older oak. The resulting wine balances intensity with elegance, expressing violet florality and graphite minerality alongside dark fruit and smoke.
