TASTING NOTES - Beautiful lemon curd, toasted bread, spice, and white flower notes emerge from the 2020 Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc, a clean, medium-bodied, beautifully balanced white with loads to love. It's going to shine on the dinner table and should have 4-6 years (probably longer) of prime drinking. This cuvee is 20% each of Grenache Blanc, Picpoul, Bourboulenc, Roussanne, and Clairette, aged in a mix of demi-muids (some new), old barrels, stainless steel, and concrete eggsPRODUCTION NOTES: Chante Cigale means singing cicada. The property has been in the family since the 19th century and is currently run by Alexandre Favier, who assumed the reins at the ripe old age of 20! The domaine is planted to 40 ha of red and 5 ha of white on 45 different parcels throughout the appellation. The Blanc is a blend of equal parts Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Bourbelenc and Clairette. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with native yeasts. Elevage is in a combination of tanks and 5% new oak barrels with no malolactic fermentation. Only a small amount of this wine is made, and it is always one of the great values for white from the region. PARK PLACE SOMMELIER PAIRING - Pair with grilled/roasted meat with an herbal/savory preparation, fatty fish dishes or pasta/risotto. Try with Creamy Garlic Parmesan Risotto
