2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc

The fabulous 2004 white Rayas Chateauneuf du Pape is a blend of white Grenache and a little bit of Clairette. This is one of the richest, most honeyed Rayas whites I have tasted, and boasts good underlying acidity, beautiful purity, and loads of flowery exotic fruits in the aromas and flavors. It should drink well for 10-15 years, possibly even longer. Feb 2007, www.robertparker.com
