Jean-Luc Colombo 2015 La Belle de Mai Roussanne-Marsanne (Saint-Péray)
Saint-Péray is an tiny and underappreciated source of northern Rhône whites, mainly Marsanne, with some Roussanne in the mix. This barrel-fermented version is rich and full-bodied, boasting melon and pineapple fruit flavors that take on hints of creamed corn and citrus on the finish. Drink now. Joe Czerwinski
