Château de Beaucastel, Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc, 75cl

The Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc is like a prodigious Montrachet in flavour, with the gout de petrol character that recalls earth and truffles. Those characteristics are interwoven with marmalade, honeysuckle, apricot, and peach fruit along with extraordinary precision and depth that last well past a minute. This exceptional effort is the most distinctive white wine of Southern France. It is difficult to find a better white Châteauneuf-du-Pape than Beaucastel. Much like their reds, their whites are made in a style that is atypical for the appellation. Handpicked and delicately processed, it undergoes 8 months of fermentation, yielding a buttery, complex flavour profile. Perfectly complemented by Manchego and Parmesan, each bottle promises an unforgettable experience.
