Although much lighter, the 2007 Crozes-Hermitage blanc is a fresh, lively, food-friendly wine for uncritical quaffing. Intelligently made, fresh, lively, concentrated wines emerge from the Domaine Belle, a modestly-sized Crozes-Hermitage estate that remains under the radar of most consumers. A Crozes-Hermitage cuvee from the granite soils of Larnage has recently been added to the portfolio. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
