The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is a medium-bodied, nicely textured, elegant and fruit-forward beauty that shows the richness and depth of the vintage. It offers classy notes of spiced apples, buttered pineapple and hints of flowers in a pure, clean, balanced package, and will shine for 3-4 years, if not longer. The blend is 40% Roussanne, 40% Grenache Blanc and 20% Clairette, and it was aged in a combination of new barrels and stainless steel tanks.
