Note: RVF rating between 15.5 and 17.5/20 (2008 Vintage Special Issue)
This 2008 Mas Neuf Tradition white cuvée, a harmonious blend of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne, is one of the South Rhône’s superb finds. It was notably highlighted by the Revue du Vin de France in the 2008 Vintage Special Issue: “This wine has a citrus zest aroma. Lively and straightforward, it delivers a lovely sensation of freshness on the palate with crisp, fruity notes.” (RVF No. 532)

About the estate:
“Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still heavily influenced by the cooperative. Deeply attached to the Costières de Nîmes, he made his home at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of wine: Rhône Paradox, highlighting the freshness and purity of the fruit; Compostelle, the result of careful selection from old vines, as well as grapes from the best plots. And finally Armonio, born from a collaboration with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, notably).”
