Had a great experience recently at a Richmond restaurant with white Cotes du Rhone, which I admit having never seen before. To preface, the restaurant is called Can Can, so all the wines are French. The rouge side of the wine list was mostly '05, which is great, but my experience is those should be in a cellar now, not being served yet. The place had a great sommelier (Bob) who described the white Cotes du Rhones as crisp, with pears and apples on the nose and complex and acidic enough to hold up to food. We had a 2007 Domaine Grand Veneur Reserve ($35 restaurant, $19.99 in stores outside PA). It was just as advertised.
Any of you oenophiles know of a white Cotes du Rhone to recommend that you can buy in PA?
