Domaine d'Ott Clos Mireille Blanc de Blanc 2010 from the east of the Côtes de Provence in Southern France. The Domaine was started by Marcel Ott but purchased by Champagne Roederer 5 years ago. This white wine is made from a blend of 80% Sémillon and 20% Rolle ( Vermentino ). It is a pale lemon with a green tint to the rim and on the nose it has a floral note above the white stone fruit aromas and a green vegetal nuance, but it has a youthful fresh aura.
On the palate there is fresh brisk acidity and a silky texture with warming but well integrated acidity, it has great structure and flavours of white stone fruits, flowers and a long finish with apricot through to the end. It is an elegant well structured wine in a very trendy bottle. Slurp supply this wine at a cost of £23+.
Score : 88 but is it good value?
