The 1999 Crozes-Hermitage blanc (a blend of 70% Marsanne and 30% Roussanne) offers aromas of rose petals and spice box. The wine possesses ripe fruit, excellent texture, a lush, richly fruity character and enough acidity for definition. It will provide beautiful drinking over the next 3-4 years.This is the strongest line-up from Domaine Albert Belle that I have tasted. Given the price, it represents a super bargain.Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
