Tasting\u00a0:
\nJohn Livingstone : Attractive fine yellow robe, a little pear in it. The nose is refined, has Roussanne elegance and \u201csparkle\u201d, citrus touches with white flowers, a subtle white peach. It\u2019s a deft combination of grace and quiet sudiste\/southern depth. The palate starts with a fresh tremor, develops a lissom gras, a plump, textured content, ending freshly. Elegance is foremost, with sympathetic oaking, too. It grips neatly on the finish,
\nthe length good and fine. Good detail here \u2013 the Grenache blanc plays a good role on the gras, the Roussanne on the elegance. It is harmonious, fine and tasty, and deserves classy\u00a0cuisine. There is a touch of oak-honey on the aftertaste. Day 2: has a buttery-lime aroma,
\nmild vanilla. The palate has a fresh debut, carbonic gas present, the finish neat \u2013 ****.<\/p>\n

Jeb Dunnuck : The 2016 Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du- Pape Blanc Tha\u00efs is outstanding and offers terrific notes of brioche, honeysuckle, white flowers, and caramelized peach. Based largely on Roussanne, with 35% Grenache Blanc, it\u2019s medium to full-bodied, rich and interesting, with good acidity and a clean, dry finish \u2013 91\/100.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
