Château Fortia
Edmée le Roy Châteauneuf-du-Pape White Rhone Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
A fresh tasting White blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Still very young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly.
Light to medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate and complex.
Showing lemons, green apples, white flowers, grapefruits, bitter herbs, earth, spices and white pepper.
Tangy finish with limes and almonds.
Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.
A blend of 60% Roussanne, 30% Clairette and 10% Grenache Blanc.
14% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
$40.

60% Roussanne, 30% Clairette, 10% Grenache Blanc. Lovely weight and texture with round citrus, stone fruit, hawthorn, vanillin, and a lengthy mineral finish. Elegant with nice complexity. Sustainably farmed.

A solid CNDP blanc especially given its $26 price tag. A touch too stylish, lacks the length and complexity of other examples, its deep fruit and approachable personality worked well at the table. Back to back nights of creamy tomato soup and grilled cheese certainly worked.
