White Rhone Blines are a variety of white wines primarily from the Rhone Valley region in France. These blends usually contain two or more types of grape varietals, including Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognier, Grenache Blanc, and Clarette.
The proportion of each varietal varies, affecting the flavor profile and complexity of the wine. Viognier tends to give aromatic notes of peaches, apricots, violets, and minerality while Marsanne and Roussanne impart richer, nutty flavors and a smooth texture. Grenache Blanc adds acidity and crispness, and Clairette brings additional floral and citrus characteristics.
White Rhone Blends have a medium to full body and moderate acidity level. They can be incredibly diverse due to the blend of grapes, with flavors ranging from fresh fruit and floral notes to deeper, honeyed and nutty tones. They are most often dry, but some versions can have a subtle sweetness.
These wines are often enjoyed on their own or paired with a range of foods such as seafood, poultry, and cheeses. Their diverse flavor profile also makes them suitable for pairing with a range of different cuisines.
