2016 Cotes du Roussillon Bila Haut Occultum Lapidem Blanc

Even better than the Les Vignes de Bila Haut Blanc cuvee, the 2016 Côtes du Roussillon Occultum Lapidem Blanc is 90% Grenache Blanc and 10% Vermentino that’s all from schists terroirs and aged in equal parts new, once and twice used demi-muids. White peach, spiced pear, stone fruits and lots of minerality all flow to a medium-bodied, elegant, pure white that has tons of class and length. It's a step up in price, but is a serious wine.
