Tasting notes
Golden in colour and glass-coating, this wine offers a nose full of florals, lemon, spice and honey. Still youthful, this has a serious palate, mouthcoating and complex – with a huge amount going on here. The acidity cuts through the lemony, floral and rich palate beautifully, giving the wine lovely. This is a wine with a great future ahead of it, yet is drinking well even now at this baby stage.

Honeysuckle, citrus and melon, along with hints of yellow tropical fruits create the core of the wine. Plush, fruity and fresh, you find elegant textures and a sweet, white peach and crisp, juicy citrus packed finish. The wine blends 60% Clairette with 40% Roussanne,, You can enjoy this on release. Drink from 2022 - 2029
Another beautiful vintage for this cuvee, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc (60% Clairette and 40% Roussanne) has a lighter golden hue as well as lively, perfumed notes of lemon curd, crisp pineapple, and white flowers that show more honeyed richness with time in the glass. Beautifully balanced, medium to full-bodied, with perfectly integrated acidity and a dry finish, this has consistently been one of the whites of the vintage over the past handful of years, and the 2019 doesn’t break that trend.
The 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc boasts subtle layers of toasted grain and honey over a base of ripe pineapple, nectarine and citrus. A barrel-fermented blend of Clairette and Roussanne, it's medium to full-bodied, plump and generous without being overly rich or unstructured—a nicely balanced yet expansive white that finishes with focus and length.
