Producer's Notes

This white wine stands out from other Châteauneuf du Pape by its freshness and smoothness. From a sunny terroir in the SAINT PREFERT district, it reproduces all the minerality of a granitic soil gently worked and harvested without excess. Very well balanced, it shows a concern for balance and energy.

A juicy and salivating attack, a salty mid-palate, a long and acidic finish. The nose of acacia and lime blossom opens onto a floral palate of jasmine and rosehip and pulpy fruit, pears and yellow peaches. The organic and biodynamic management allows us to achieve the right level of maturity without excessive alcohol and with remarkable natural acidity.

Decanter Magazine: 96 Points

Touch of reductive smoky bacon on the nose. Full-bodied, rich, quite unctuous but dry. The lime peel finish has cut and salinity, making it long and precise. From two parcels of galets roulés in the south of the appellation, fermented in stainless steel, aged in foudre and demi-muid.

Vinous: 94 Points

The 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc holds a tight lead over the 2020 and 2022. The 2021 Blanc bursts with delightful aromas of honeysuckle, yellow apple, lemon and lime zest, white peach, melon and a pinch of pineapple. It is full-bodied, pure and precise, balanced by lively acidity and ending distinctively sapid.

Jeb Dunnuck: 94 Points

The 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc continues to impress, with the fresher, focused, elegant style of the vintage to go with beautiful white flowers, citrus, crushed stone, and spicy aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, and elegant on the palate, with a great finish. It tastes exactly as it did a year ago, with no evolution, so this beauty is going to evolve for at least another 7-8 years, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve longer.
