This unusual yet delicious white blend is made up of Macabeo, Vermentino and Grenache Blanc. Think of it as a French take on American Chardonnay, but more complex and elegant. The result is a well-balanced wine that’s quite fruity upfront without being too sweet and a smooth and elegant oaky finish. If you’re open to changing up your whites give this one a try!


About the wine

Grapes: 50% Macabeo, 30% Vermentino and 20% Grenache Blanc

Region: Languedoc Roussillon, FRANCE

Tasting notes:  An expansive, ample and substantial wine. The Macabeo and Grenache blanc are picked slightly underripe to preserve their freshness and minerality. Ten percent by volume is matured in barrels. Vermentino is vinified separately, adding citrus and exotic fruit notes.

Food friends: Perfect match with fish (cooked, grilled, raw or marinated). Also great with white meats and goat cheese.


About the winery 

Domaine Rière Cadène is a family winery nestled between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountains, in a region called Roussillon. Since 1904, from father to son, they have been using the same traditional skills and perpetuate their precious understanding of the wine. They are committed to producing high quality wines that reflect their great terroir, in a sustainable way (ongoing conversion to organic farming). Here many years ago, a family of winegrowers began cultivating two exceptionally distinctive terroirs, with a focus on freshness, elegance, and attention to detail for generations to come.
