This Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc exudes elegance and finesse. A lovely spring-like bouquet of white flowers captivates the nose from the very first whiff, giving way to a delicate palate with a pleasant richness that never feels heavy.

About the estate:
Despite its name, this estate is highly fragmented and encompasses nearly every type of soil found within the appellation. Produced using traditional methods, the red Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines often appear reserved in their youth. They are crafted to reveal their full potential over time. For several vintages now, Thierry Sabon has brought finesse and refinement to the entire range, from the basic Côtes-du-Rhône to the top-tier Châteauneuf-du-Pape. We have been following this estate’s progress for many years. At ten years old, the wines express themselves with grace. At twenty years, they reach a new milestone and reveal their true potential: one then fully appreciates their aromas of truffle, undergrowth, and fruit that seems infused by time. The white Châteauneuf-du-Pape is spirited and distinguished. In good vintages, the estate offers the Cuvée du Papet, a dense and deep wine, built for aging, which often reaches an exceptional level. All the wines show great aging potential.
