Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2007

The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc, which includes equal percentages of all six authorized white varietals, exhibits notes of licorice, poached pears, honeysuckle, and citrus. Deep and full-bodied with good acidity as well as surprising length and richness, it is one of the top whites of the appellation.
