Dom. Saint Préfert Cuvée Spéciale Vieilles Clairettes Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc 2016

A wine I suspect will be the white wine of the vintage, the 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvée Spéciale Vieilles Clairettes Blanc is a tiny production cuvée that comes from a single parcel of very old Clairette. A rich, unctuous, incredibly textured white that’s overflowing with notions of orange marmalade, pineapple, buttered citrus and toasted bread, it has full-bodied richness, a thick, layered texture and a great finish.
