Beautiful crushed citrus, toasted spice, sappy herbs, and a kiss of white flowers emerge on the nose, and it’s medium-bodied, with a building, layered texture and bright acidity. Brought up eight months in a mix of barrels and concrete, it’s going to shine for 2-4 years, although there’s no need to delay gratification.”\n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 91, Jeb Dunnuck, January 25, 2022\n“A step up, the 2020 Costières De Nîmes Heritage Blanc (which was previously released under the Vieilles Vignes label) is 50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussanne, 15% Clairette, and the rest Viognier.

It has soft but rich and fragrant aroma of pineapple, orange, fresh mint and spice. It is medium-full bodied, fleshy\/slippery, smooth and generous, with lowish acid but fine balanced and composition. Some fennel on the finish. The length is excellent. Great value.” \n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 90, 4 Star Value Rating, Michael Godel, WineAlign, January 2023\n“Heritage Blanc and the name makes wonderful sense because the four varieties involved are indeed part of the great culture and tradition of southern French blended whites. Starting with half grenache and then (30) roussanne, (15) clairette and (5) viognier. A warming get together, creamy and yet salty-mineral as needs be to keep a ying-yang, balanced effect in play. Tons of fruit in this 2020 and a dream to sip, preferably alongside cheesy appetizers. Drink 2023-2025.”\n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 90, Natalie MacLean, January 21, 2023\n“Produced by master wine crafter Michel Gassier, Château de Nages Héritage 2020 is a juicy white wine blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussanne, 15% Clairette with the balance in Viognier sourced from the Costières De Nîme wine region. Fragrant with white florals, citrus marmalade, fine herbs, toasted oak spice, dry, medium-bodied and vibrant on the palate. The wine was matured for eight months in a combination of oak barrels and concrete tanks. So good now, chill and enjoy it with grilled chicken dishes.”\n\u003ch2\u003eRELEASE DATE\u003c\/h2\u003e\nJanuary 21, 2023\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLCBO VINTAGES#\u003c\/h2\u003e\n479659\n\u003ch2\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n2020\n\u003ch2\u003eSIZE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n750 ml\n\u003ch2\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/h2\u003e\nFrance\n\u003ch2\u003eREGION\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRhone\n\u003ch2\u003eVARIETALS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n50% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussanne, 15% Clairette, 5% Viognier\n\u003ch2\u003eALCOHOL\u003c\/h2\u003e\n14.5%\n\u003ch2\u003eVINEYARD PRACTICES\u003c\/h2\u003e\nCertified Organic","published_at":"2023-03-16T09:50:40-04:00","created_at":"2023-03-16T09:50:40-04:00","vendor":"Château de Nages","type":"Wine","tags":["BottlePrice:22.95","BottlePriceMap:750:22.95","CaseSize:6","CaseSizeMap:750:6","Category:LCBO","Category:White Wine","Country:France","Country:France \u003e Rhone","LCBOLink:ch-teau-de-nages-vieilles-vignes-blanc-2017-479659","override-soh-skip","Profile:90PointWine","rating: 91 PTS (JD)","Region:Rhone","Size:750ml","Type:White","Type:Wines","Varietal2:Roussanne","Varietal:Grenache Blanc","Vintage:2020"],"price":13770,"price_min":13770,"price_max":13770,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43871616663807,"title":"750 ml","option1":"750 ml","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"479659","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"LCBO - Château de Nages Heritage Blanc Organic 2020 - 750 ml","public_title":"750 ml","options":["750 ml"],"price":13770,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Chateau_de_Nages_Heritage_Blanc_PNG.png?v=1678974642"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Chateau_de_Nages_Heritage_Blanc_PNG.png?v=1678974642","options":["Size"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":31951113126143,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":3024,"width":3024,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Chateau_de_Nages_Heritage_Blanc_PNG.png?v=1678974642"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":3024,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/8358\/4335\/products\/Chateau_de_Nages_Heritage_Blanc_PNG.png?v=1678974642","width":3024}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/h2\u003e\nBeautiful bright yellow with green highlights.
