Château de la Font du Loup Description
The vines planted on a northern slope facing the Mistral wind and growing on alluvial sand never risk producing overtipe fruit. Freshness, delicacy and elegance are the right adjectives to describe the Font du Loup wines.
The white Château de la Font du Loup, a limited cuvée of 5000 bottles.
Tasting Note: Seduces with its style, lime blossom and acacia and its aromas of white fruits (apricot, peach, pear..). Its freshness and its minerality will allow a long ageing in cellar.
Wine Pairing: Bresse chicken, veal blanquette, Sea bass, sea bream, Hard or blue-veined cheeses, small grilled vegetables.
Wine Advocate: 89 Points
Marked by attractive notions of lime zest, white peach and melon, the 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is a blend of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne, with smaller amounts of Bourboulenc and Clairette. Medium to full-bodied in the mouth, it's plump and fleshy, but the flavors fall away a bit quickly on the finish.
