Château d’Ollières – Cuvée Classique – Côteaux Varois en Provence 2022

Region: Côteaux Varois en Provence, Provence

Tasting Notes: Peaches and ripe pineapples on the nose lead to a medium body full of yellow fruits and citrus. White flowers and almonds hint through the balanced body with a refreshing crisp citrus finish.

Blend: 90% Rolle, 10% Ugni Blanc

Alcohol: 12.5%

Cellar: Now or up to 2 years

Pair With: Pair with a citrus summer salad and goat cheese, or grilled whitefish and shrimp. Crab, lobster, scallops and other rich shellfish are featured pairings alongside Provençal classics like boillabaise or aioli. For cheese pairings, soft options like Feta, Ricotta or fresh Mozzarella pair well though we would recommend the local goat cheese Crottin de Chavignol. A nuttier, creamier option would be a semi-firm sheep’s milk cheese, such as Ossau-Iraty.
