Straw yellow with golden highlights. On the nose, white flowers and white-fleshed stone fruits evolving into notes of buttery hazelnuts. Honey hints develop over ageing. Mouth-filling and plump with honey and fresh ripe fruits (peach, white currant). Great length with an elegant citrus finish.
Serve as an aperitif or enjoy with main course salads, crusty seabass and foie gras, lobster in mild spices, roast chicken with crayfish, or with desserts of apple pie or crème caramel.

Crisp green-apple and pear flavors introduce this Grenache Blanc-dominant blend augmented by 10% each of Clairette, Roussanne and Bourboulenc. Matured entirely in stainless steel, it's moderately full bodied but fresh, accented by chamomile, crushed stone and lime. Refreshing young, the wine should gain depth as it improves through 2030.

Made in a slightly fresher style, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Hauts de Barville Blanc has pretty citrus, lemon blossom, and floral aromatics to go with a medium-bodied, vibrant, clean and nicely balanced style on the palate. It's another terrific white in the lineup that is going to evolve nicely for 4-6 years.
