2020 Chateau Simone Palette Blanc

A unique, singular and deeply textural white wine from Provence. This isn't an aperitif wine, its a dinner white that requires a dish with a bit of stuffing and richness to match the wine. If you enjoy the wines of Burgundy or Jura this is surely to be right up your alley!

Château Simone encompasses twenty hectares of vineyards that sit on limestone soils at elevations between 500 and 750 feet above sea level on the slopes of Montaiguet. The special microclimate of this appellation is influenced by the encircling pine forests, the mass of Mont Sainte-Victoire, and the Arc River. The vineyards were reconstituted after the invasion of phylloxera and many vines are over a century old. The Rougiers maintain the particular vinification methods developed and cherished over many decades. For those of you who are not familiar with these wines, whether rouge, blanc or rosé, we believe you will find them to be compelling and unique.
