White Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc isn't as well-known as its red brother but it's well worth experimenting with. Especially when it's as good as this one. It's made from a blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 40% Roussanne, 20% Clairette. The result is something unique, a wine that majors on texture, with an almond-like creaminess. It's quite amazingly decadent and goes splendidly with rich dishes like shoulder of pork, especially if you're stuffing it with apricots, turbot or hard cheeses.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Full texture, quite low acidity with creamy almonds and vanilla accentuated with white peaches, honey, and thyme.
