Wine Reviews

Stylish, lush and creamy, offering a dense core of ripe melon and pear, with seductive lashings of salty oak and spices. Harmonious, complex and long on the finish, filigreed with notes of dried flowers and dried leaves for a savory turn.

A mouthfilling, decadent style, grounded by a serious mineral foundation. Honeysuckle, star fruit and creamed yellow apple are flecked with green herbs and a flattering brush of toasty oak and almond richness.

Crafted mainly from sandy soils complemented with galets roulés, the 2024 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc Clos de Beauvenir is terrific, offering up aromas of white fruits, spices and ripe orchard fruits. Full-bodied, dense and concentrated, it’s also layered and textured with a fleshy core of fruit and a harmonious mid-palate that segues into a long, spicy finish with a delicately oaky hint.

Prominent linden blossom, yellow apple, white peach and a splash of herbal tea introduce the complex 2024 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Clos de Beauvenir. Full-bodied, concentrated and extremely refined, the 2024 is such a classy, elegant Clos de Beauvenir that’s worth being discovered.

A stunning nose of fresh honeycomb, apricots and candied orange slices with touches of orange blossoms and wild herbs. Concentrated, juicy and beautifully balanced, the mineral acidity lifts the medium- to full-bodied palate.
