2023 Chateau Grand Boise Auro Vin de France White Malbec it somehow manages to pull100% Grenache Noir, made as a blanc de noir, fermented and briefly aged in stainless steel. Vin de France. Pours almost water white. Apricots, oranges, honeydew melon, mango, oddly evokes Champagne, even a nod of brioche. Underpinned with fine, cleansing mineral nodding to its limestone soil origins, with some orange rind bitterness. Squeaky clean and different without being at all weird.
