Clos Des Papes, Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc 2019 (1.5L)

97 points Jeb Dunnuck
"I think even better, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc is cut from the same cloth yet has a touch more richness. Honeyed lime, white grapefruit, crushed stone, and poached pear are just some of the nuances here, and it’s medium to full-bodied, with a rich, concentrated mouthfeel, good acidity, and a great finish. It’s another sensational white from this estate to enjoy over the coming two decades or so."

"Low acidity, a little on the heavy side with pear, tarragon, quince, anise and touches of grapefruit and lemon verbena on the finish. Good length and already quite complex, but a little sprawling. Contains roughly equal parts of the six permitted white grapes. Various plots around the appellation, farmed organically, all varieties co-fermented in stainless steel."

"Wow, really expressive nose – honeycomb and Conference pear. Rich palate with plenty of freshness and a sense of sweetness too, lemon verbena and bergamot. Drinking beautifully now but will improve with time. Fresh and also has broad shoulders at the same time. 17.5/20 points. (AC)"
