Domaine de la Janasse - Châteauneuf-du-Pape - White - 2024

Wine:

The 2024 Châteauneuf-du-Pape White marks the estate’s first certified organic vintage. A stunning expression of purity, it opens with Mediterranean notes of anise, mint, and preserved lemon. On the palate, it’s sharply defined, maintaining vibrant freshness alongside a rich, creamy texture—all perfectly ripe and expertly crafted without any oak influence. Sourced from sandy soils, this elegant and radiant wine avoids any overly sunny character, instead showcasing the vintage’s bright acidity. A superb bottle to enjoy over the next decade, especially with lemon chicken. A Selection Committee Favourite, rated 94/100.
