Les Safres (CNDP) (white) (0.75 L)

With notes of white peach, verbena, spices, lemon oil and honeysuckle, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc Les Safres possesses a medium-bodied, round and enveloping structure built around a sappy texture and bright acids that segue into a long, mineral and saline finish. This blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussanne and 30% Clairette, matured for four months in stainless steel, is produced at only 2,500 bottles and could age gracefully over the next 20 years (if you have the patience!).
