Based on 45% Grenache Blanc, 25% Roussanne, and the rest a mix of Clairette and Bourboulenc, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc is a lively, juicy, medium-bodied effort offering plenty of tangerine and citrus blossom aromas and flavors, a solid spine of acidity, a kiss of salty minerality on the finish, and plenty of character. It’s a solid, well-made white that I’d be happy to drink any time over the coming 3-5 years.
