Domaine de la Présidente 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc

A white Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Domaine de la Présidente, made from Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Roussanne. The grapes are hand-picked from vineyards on the southern slope of the area, and fermentation takes place partly in oak barrels, followed by ageing on the lees. The soil is mainly stone and limestone, giving the wine marked minerality and good structure. It is light golden with slight green nuances. The nose shows white flowers, citrus fruits such as lemon and orange, plus a hint of almonds and spices from the oak. The palate is elegant and full, balancing freshness with creamy notes of honey and toasted nuts, with a mineral finish.
