As impressive as the reds have been, the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape blanc is a distinctive wine with notes of mint interwoven with cantaloupe and melons. Pretty aromatics are followed by an attractive, medium to full-bodied wine with surprising intensity and richness. Drink it over the next 2-3 years.
