Released as an IGP due to the inclusion of Chenin Blanc, the 2021 Pay D'Oc Les Traverses De Fontanès is equal parts Vermentino, Clairette, and Chenin Blanc that was raised in a mix of foudre and concrete eggs. It has a pretty white flower, ripe peach, and buttered pineapple-like bouquet that gives way to a medium-bodied, fresh, focused white with integrated acidity and outstanding length. It's going to be a versatile white, as it has both richness and freshness.
