Chardonnay and Roussanne add structure and texture, while Roussanne and Viognier contribute yellow fruit, floral notes and spicy nuances. Clairette Blanche can round it off with herbal notes and softer acidity.

In the glass, the colour ranges from pale yellow to golden yellowdepending on ripeness and Aged. Both fresh, fruit-driven and fuller, creamier styles are possible; tannins generally remain in the background. How taut or soft the blend feels depends on its composition and vinification.
