Description
The 2021 Bilancia Uvaggio Field Blend is a sophisticated expression of Rhône white varietals, crafted from hand-harvested grapes in the esteemed La Collina vineyard. This blend of 48% Viognier, 30% Marsanne, and 18% Roussanne is a harmonious marriage of floral, fruit-forward richness and mineral-driven freshness. In the glass, it shows a pale straw gold color, with vibrant aromatics of green pear, cardamom, apricot, and honeysuckle, complemented by delicate notes of white rose petal and dried ginger.
On the palate, this wine offers a lush, full-bodied mouthfeel, with a beautifully balanced acidity that imparts both length and structure. The Viognier adds a touch of marmalade viscosity towards the finish, while savory notes of preserved lemon, green olive, and sorrel bring depth and complexity. Praised by critics, including 95 points from Bob Campbell, who describes it as "rich and sweet-fruited," and 91 points from James Suckling, this wine is both immediately appealing and a great candidate for future cellaring. With its bold fruit flavors, fine texture, and layered finish, the Bilancia Uvaggio Field Blend is a mesmerizing wine that will continue to evolve for years to come.
