Domaine du Vieux Lazaret Chateauneuf du Pape BLANC 2023 375ml HALF BOTTLE

Expert Review

Jeb Dunnuck writes: The 2023 Chteauneuf Du Pape Domaine Du Vieux Lazaret Blanc is a classic blend of 59% Clairette, 35% Grenache Blanc, 5% Bourboulenc, and the rest Roussanne. This vibrant, well-made, medium-bodied white has a great nose of crushed lemon and lime fruit as well as mint, garrigue, and sappy flower-like nuances. It picks up a beautiful sense of salty minerality with time in the glass and is well worth your time and money. – Jeb Dunnuck 91

James Suckling writes: A precise, layered and attractive Chateauneuf with aromas of sliced apples, warm herbs, anise, stones and wildflowers. Its medium-bodied with a succulent development on the palate. Theres a subtle texture, with notes of herbs, flowers, bitter almonds and fresh green pears. Plenty of patina and precision, with a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold. – James Suckling 93

Winemaker Description

Clay soils formed from the decomposition of the limestone mother rock and on soils of a sandy texture.

Easily the best wine for pairing with Lobster but also delicious with other seafood, puff-pastries, white meats, or goat cheeses.
