The light gold 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc offers up a bright, juicy, medium-bodied style with tart melon and pineapple fruits as well as some spice and honeyed mineral nuances. Nicely balanced and medium-bodied, it puts on weight with time in the glass and is an outstanding white to enjoy over the coming 3-4 years or so. I wouldn't be surprised to see it keep longer. The blend is 33% Roussanne, 29% Clairette, 28% Grenache Blanc, and the balance Bourboulenc, aged in a mix of old barrels and stainless steel.

Fresh and floral on the nose and on the palate. This is a lively, drinkable and contemporary style - not trying too hard, not over-oaked, over-alcoholic or overly full-bodied. It’s also a refreshing style but not without typicité or seriousness. A good value option in 2018. Vinified in old barriques and stainless steel.
