Alice Blanc 2024

When we think Châteauneuf-du-Pape, we mostly think RED. Same goes for Côtes du Rhône. Yet, the area has nothing to shy away from, especially with grape varietals such as Bourboulenc. I was looking for a wine that would get close to a white CdP, rich, profound, fatty, yet fresh. Without the steep price point. Here we are 🙏 The nose opens on honey, hawthorne, orange leaf, thyme and pine forest. The mouth touch is rich, thick with an instant bang for your buck kind of feeling. Honey, creamy, with an invigorating note of salted lemon. The finish is on fresh almond and its delicate bitterness extend the finish of a handful of seconds.
