French Clairette is a white wine grape variety primarily grown in the Rhône Valley and Languedoc regions of Southern France. It’s often used in blends, such as those of white Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and it is one of the key grapes in the sparkling wine Clairette de Die. Wines made from Clairette typically offer flavours of green apple, pear, and citrus, sometimes with floral or nutty notes. They’re known for their low acidity, which lends a soft and rounded character. If you enjoy white wines that are gentle, fruit-forward, and well-rounded, wines made from or featuring French Clairette could be a great choice for you.
