($35; 35% clairette, 30% grenache blanc, 25% roussanne and 10% bourboulenc) Yellow-gold. Pungent aromas of mango, papaya, peach pit and smoky minerals. Lush, palate-coating tropical fruit flavors are braced by zesty minerals, picking up a note of bitter lemon rind on the back. Suave, penetrating, subtly sweet citrus flavors linger on a spicy finish. This will work with light as well as richer foods. (Diageo Chateau & Estate Wines, New York NY
