2021 Domaine du Pegau Chateaneuf-du-Pape Cuvee A Tempo Blanc

” Not yet bottled, the tiny production 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape A Temp comes from one-third each of Clairette, Roussanne, and Grenache Blanc. It’s another mineral-driven beauty that shows the cooler, fresher style of the vintage in its lime, honeyed mineral, and white flower-driven aromas and flavors. It’s medium to full-bodied, has a chiseled, focused mouthfeel, bright acidity, and a great finish.<!–more–>It’s always a great tasting with Laurence Féraud, and the quality at this address remains sky-high, both with their reds and their whites. I was thrilled to see the 2020s show better this go-round, and this will certainly be a solid vintage.”
