Critics Ratings
‘Delicate citrus aroma, becoming bolder and richer on the palate. Dense but elegant. Notes of orange and some pear graininess. Dry, lively and long.’ – Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Oct 2010)
‘Revealing a touch of darker gold in its color, the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is another blockbuster that continues to shine every time I've opened a bottle. Ripe, decadent and supple, it has boatloads of honeycomb, caramelized citrus, brioche and ripe tropical fruits to go with a gorgeously textured feel on the palate. I suspect it's best consumed over the coming year or two or cellared for 5-6 years.’ – Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, 95/100 (Sep 2015)
