“Pale yellow-gold. Meyer lemon, pear nectar and jasmine scents show very good clarity and pick up suggestions of tarragon, beeswax and candied ginger with air. Chewy and precise on the palate, offering intense, mineral-laced citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a deeper suggestion of yellow plum that gains strength on the back half. Shows excellent clarity and mineral cut on the sappy finish, which leaves a suave floral note behind.”

“An extroverted white, with bright verbena and honeysuckle notes out front, followed quickly by juicy yellow apple and white peach fruit flavors. A pretty shortbread lining flatters the finish. Drink now through 2023.”
About The Winery
Maison & Domaines Les Alexandrins is the story of three friends combining the savoir-faire they learned from their parents and grandparents and the fruits from beautiful and historic terroirs. Nicolas Jaboulet, the 6th generation of a winegrowing family in Tain l'Hermitage, Guillaume Sorrel, son of Marc Sorrel of Domaine Sorrel in Hermitage, and Alexandre Caso, a specialist in the terroirs of the Northern Rhône, joined forces in 2012. They began working parcel by parcel in Crozes-Hermitage for the wines of Maison Nicolas Perrin. In 2015, the name was changed to Maison & Domaines Les Alexandrins. Today, Maison & Domaines Les Alexandrins produces Northern Rhône wines that are true and classic expressions of the region.
