JEB DUNNUCK

Score : 90

Always a winner, especially when you consider the volume produced, the 2019 Côtes du Rhône Blanc reveals a vivid gold hue as well as beautiful notes of crushed citrus, honeyed peach, and white flowers to go with a medium-bodied, crisp, clean style on the palate. With good acidity and a dry finish, it’s going to shine on the dinner table and keep nicely for 2-3 years. It’s a smoking value.
