Rolle-Sauvignon Coteaux Varois white from Famille Perrin's organic Margui estate. Citrus-lifted, herb-driven, saline.

What it pairs with

  • Grilled bream with herbs Mediterranean white fish and herb meet the wine's white peach and lemon palate.More wines for fish →
  • Aioli platter Classic Provencal dish; the wine's high acidity cuts through the garlic mayo.
  • Soft goat cheese Fresh goat cheese picks up the wine's almond and Mediterranean-herb register.More wines for lamb →

With cheese

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.

History

The Rolle-Sauvignon Coteaux Varois Blanc launched as Margui's white when Famille Perrin took over winemaking at the property.
