The 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Les Safres checks in at 14.98% alcohol. A short élevage of four months in stainless steel neatly preserved the vivid freshness. Combining fragrant honeysuckle, yellow apple, lime flesh and white peach aromas, the medium- to full-bodied 2023 closes with persistence on the sapid finale. Production totaled only 2,593 bottles.

Jun 5th, 2021Beautiful deep golden color, aromas are slightly buttery, not overly oaky, grass, lemon grass, citrus, and apricots. Nice and floral, and very drinkable. Would be great paired with southeast Asian foods.
