Beautiful bright color with light yellow and green reflections. The nose is very complex and pretty with white flowers, peach, and ginger. This wine is unmistakably delicious, with notes of fresh pear at the end. The mouth is smooth and lush with nice aromatics and light peppered notes.
Blend: 40% Grenache Blanc, 40% Roussanne, 10% Bourboulenc & Picpoul, 10% Clairette

91 Jeb Dunnuck The 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc (40% Clairette, 30% Bourboulenc, and 15% each Grenache Blanc and Roussanne) is terrific, with a juicy pear, tropical, and minty herb-driven perfume as well as medium-bodied richness and depth. It has bright acidity and a pure, elegant style that will evolve gracefully.
90 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc reveals a smoky, spicy bouquet of white fruits and herbs. Medium to full-bodied, balanced and sappy, it has bright acids and a lively, fresh mid-palate that segues into a long, ethereal finish. This blend of 40% Clairette, 30% Bourboulenc, 15% Grenache Blanc and 15% Roussanne was planted on pebble soils and matured entirely in stainless steel.
