Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2022

Rocking stuff, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc boasts a vivid gold hue to go with a killer nose of honeyed stone fruits, toasted almonds, flower oil, and caramelized orange. It’s medium to full-bodied, concentrated, has a supple, seamless mouthfeel, and the fresh, elegant style of the vintage. (jebdunnuck.com,Oct. 29, 2024)
