Sommelier's Note

"Remarkably balanced, this gorgeous vintage opens with a fresh, fruity nose where yellow peach and citrus aromas are enhanced by a refined touch of lemon verbena. On the palate, it delivers impressive amplitude with a smooth, mouth-refreshing texture. The finish is long and flavorful. A magnificent white Châteauneuf-du-Pape, rich in taste and full of energy!"
