This soft yet powerful white wine of the estate is produced from a blend of Clairette and Bourboulenc.

This is an excellent alternative to California Chardonnay with half the sugar and none of the oak.

This bright, pale-golden wine opens to aromas of white fruits and flowers. On the palate, it is nicely balanced with freshness provided by the Clairette while the white Grenache gives it body and a gentle softness. 90pts Wine Advocate

Chateau Massiac Minervois "Les Sentinelles

FRANCE: RHONE VALLEY -SOUTHERN - COTES DU RHONE

Size750MLVintage2019SKU17667

The "Sentinelle" cuvee is the more precocious of the two reds produced at Massiac. The tannins are more supple and the fruit a touch riper, more forward and less rustic than its companion. Fermentation and elevage are in tank. The wine is bottled within a year of the harvest. The blend is usually two-thirds Syrah and one-third Carignan.

Ruby red color. Light with berry flavors and a round flavor. Surprisingly refreshing taste. Dry but not excessively so. Modest tannins, good earthy finish.
