Chateau Capion 2008 1 C White (Vin de Pays de L'Herault)
- $15
An interesting blend of 50% Chardonnay, 40% Roussanne and 10% Sauvignon Blanc, this is a lively and very aromatic white with scents of pretty pink florals like sweet pea and roses, ripe peach, mango and melon. The same carries through to the palate, which shows great roundness in the middle without being too flabby. The finish is clean but lengthy. Delish.

Chateau Capion 2008 Blanc White (Coteaux du Languedoc)
- $70
A blend of 80% Viognier and 20% Roussanne that spent nine months in French oak, this is a rich and developed wine with intense characteristics of peaches and cream, buttered popcorn, guava and honeydew. Round and dense with a spicy finish.

Chateau Capion 2009 Fiona Rosé (Vin de Pays de L'Herault)
Hibiscus tea and minor biscuit notes add depth to this Cinsault-based rosé. Tart red cherry and cranberry flavors flesh out the mouth, leading into the refreshing finish.

Chateau Capion 2009 Le Colombier White (Coteaux du Languedoc)
- $29
This is a rich and round white that needs a bit more cut to its overall character. Honeyed peach, buttered toast and heavy cream all abound, screaming for more acidity to liven up the party.
