La Vieille Ferme Blanc 75cl
Pour this cold and it just works. White peach, a squeeze of citrus, a little white-flower lift, then a clean dry finish that leaves you wanting the next sip. It's the bottle you grab when you don't want to think too hard but still want to drink well. Friday after work, a slow Sunday, a plate of grilled fish on the balcony. La Vieille Ferme never overcomplicates it.
Stick your nose in and you get ripe white peach and nectarine, a hint of jasmine and white flowers, maybe a whisper of almond. The first sip is fresh and juicy, citrus running right through it, with a saline, lemony snap on the finish that keeps things crisp and dry. No sweetness, no heaviness, no oak. Just a bright, easy southern-French white that's gone before you notice. Light on its feet at 12.5%.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
La Vieille Ferme means "the old farm," and it comes from Famille Perrin in France's southern Rhône. That's a serious name to have behind a friendly bottle. The Perrins are the same family that runs Château de Beaucastel, one of the legends of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, so the everyday wine gets the same know-how as the grand stuff. The blend is southern-Rhône classic: Grenache Blanc for body, Ugni Blanc for freshness, Vermentino for flavour and a touch of Bourboulenc. Spot the rooster on the label and you'll get why people nickname it the "chicken wine."
