Picodon Our pick Châteauneuf-du-Pape blanc is a dry, round southern white of Grenache blanc, Roussanne or Clairette, with moderate acidity. Its weight stands next to the goaty tang and nutty, drier paste of an aged Picodon, where a lean white would be swamped. Châteauneuf-du-Pape blanc, Rhone Valley: Domaine du Vieux Telegraphe La Crau Blanc · Chateau La Nerthe Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
Pérail Our pick Pérail is milky and sweet, with a melting, creamy paste under a felted rind. A southern white blend fermented or raised wholly or partly in barrel has the roundness to match the paste, and a saline, mineral finish that keeps each bite fresh. Languedoc white blend raised in oak, Languedoc: Grand Vin Blanc · Champs des Pierres Blanc
Banon Our pick A Palette blanc, mostly Clairette raised a year on its lees in old foudres, is full-bodied and waxy with fennel and salted-nut notes, enough weight for Banon's woody, creamy paste without sharp acidity. Palette blanc, Provence: Chateau Simone Palette Blanc
Tomme de Provence Our pick Tomme de Provence is creamy, with walnut and spice and a touch of acidity. A Provence white with part of the wine raised in old oak gains texture without vanilla, and its saline finish and fennel or almond notes sit beside the walnut. Provence white partly fermented or aged in old oak, Provence: Domaine de la Ferme Blanche Cassis Excellence Blanc · Chateau de Pibarnon Nuances Blanc · Domaine de Terrebrune Bandol Blanc
