JCP Maltus, Le Nardian Blanc, 2014Le Nardian is the product of a wager between their now retired Consulting Oenologue, Gilles Pauquet (also consultant to Chateau Cheval Blanc, Figeac and Canon) and JCP Maltus, that a low cropped white would see similar benefits to a red wine. Le Nardian has, as one of its major components, Muscadelle a cousin of Viognier. They manage to get an almost Rhne style sense with the wine as its aromatic quality comes to the fore.
