Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is made from a blend of 60% Grenache Blanc, 20% Clairette, 10% Roussanne and 10% Bourboulenc. Aged in steel tanks, the production is close to 250 cases per year.
Bright pale straw to straw colour with a watery hue. Lifted pear and red apple skin aromas co-exist with quince, light honeysuckle and wet slate notes. On the palate rich fleshy yellow pear and ripe apple fruits hold court over a back drop of quince, honeysuckle and wet stone characters. Texturally rounded it finishes dry with a lick of brisk acidity enlivening the long, delicately spiced aftertaste.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc. 14%
