The whites are as sought after as the reds and just as scarce, since most of what they make goes to restaurants and private customers who have been buying for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit comes from Les Bâties at Larnage, a site the two of them call Les Murettes, on red clay and stone with some granite running through it. It is the same soil type as Les Rocoules up in Hermitage. Both varieties were planted in 1986 and the blend runs roughly half and half, with Roussanne usually the larger share. Malolactic is taken to completion and the wine spends 12 months in oak casks of 228 and 600 litres, a quarter of them new. We believe this vintage is made with no added sulphur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe have not yet tried this vintage, but hear it has notes of walnut, peach, white flowers, dried fruit and greengage plum, nutty and restrained with a real grip to it. If wanting to pair this with food, a good option could be roast chicken, hard cheese or a mushroom dish.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MORE Natural Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66050917564684,"sku":null,"price":57.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0221\/6407\/8692\/files\/Dard-et-Ribo-Crozes-Hermitages-Blanc-2023.png?v=1793345331","url":"https:\/\/morenaturalwine.co.uk\/products\/dard-et-ribo-crozes-hermitage-blanc-2023","provider":"MORE Natural Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
