Tasting Notes:
A first? Almost certainly. This is a Blanc de Noirs Châteauneuf-du-Pape, a white wine made from (mostly) black grapes, in this case Grenache and Syrah. Also multi-vintage: 2016-2018-2020-2021. Crunchy fruit on the nose with a full, crisp palate. Intriguing and delicious.

This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel vats and no ageing in wood. There is also no batonnage in order to maintain a perfect level of acidity.
