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.

Enjoyed this … drinking a lot of CNPs this summer. If any of you play golf, I hope you saw Phil Mickelson drinking wine out of his newest trophy.

Beautiful 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.

Young wine, showing moderate intensity, medium acidity, apple brûlée, bruised stone fruit, fantastic clarity, brilliant golden color. Subtle hint of neutral oak, tastes like it definitely went through ML.
