Winemaker Notes
Panorama Blanc is a blend, different each time, of all the terroirs planted with white grape varieties on the estate. Diversity of terroir, grape variety and type of ageing, each year Sylvain Morey Luberon tries to find the fruitiness and freshness that are the hallmarks of these wines from a unique mountain!
2024 was a very fine vintage, despite yet another severe late frost episode in the region, which did not totally spare the estate. Alternating good rains, windy spells and temperatures that were not excessively high enabled us to obtain a very well-balanced harvest, with a real freshness in the wines obtained. They are easily digestible and fine, without excess.
Blend: 25% Grenache Blanc, 20% Vermentino, 15% Clairette, 15% Bourboulenc, 10% Ugni Blanc, 7% Roussanne, 5% Viognier, 3% Marsanne
Full-bodied and flavorful, white Rhône blends originate from France’s Rhône Valley. Today these blends are also becoming popular in other regions. Typically some combination of Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne and Viognier form the basis of a white Rhône blend with varying degrees of flexibility depending on the exact appellation. Somm Secret—In the Northern Rhône, blends of Marsanne and Roussanne are common but the south retains more variety. Marsanne, Roussanne as well as Bourboulenc, Clairette, Picpoul and Ugni Blanc are typical.
A cooler region precisely between Ventoux and Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence, Cotes du Luberon is a source of full-bodied rosés and crisp, herb-driven reds and whites.
