Le Vieux Donjon Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc
| Vintage: | 2022 |

| Description: | Wine Advocate 94 Points: "a 50-50 blend of Clairette and Roussanne, all made and matured in stainless steel, the 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is a classic example of Vieux Donjon's white. Scents of tangerine, pineapple and white peach are tinged with just a hint of honeyed richness that somehow enhances rather than compromises the overall sense of freshness. It's medium to full-bodied in the mouth, with a silky texture and ample length.". James Suckling 94 Points: "The attractive nose of apricot and orange blossom pulls you into this ripe and substantial, yet lively and delicate, white Chateauneuf. I love the mouthfeel of this graceful wine and the way the fine tannins support the long finish. A cuvee of 50% clairette and 50% roussanne, which were co-fermented and matured in tank and bottled in February after the vintage to retain freshness. Drink or hold.". Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points: "Lots of white flowers, melon, and spicy nuances emerge from the 2022 Chteauneuf Du Pape Blanc, a blend of equal parts Clairette and Roussanne brought up all in stainless steel. It's medium to full-bodied, with remarkable purity and freshness, as well as flawless balance. I don't think it's going to make old bones." |
