Clos de Beauvenir 2017
AOP Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Clos de Beauvenir is named after the Tulle Villefranche family’s old bastide. The old castle garden is protected from the wind by plane trees that cast a shadow during the day. The sandy, loamy soils dotted with rolled pebbles promote finesse and aromatic expression, and the natural springs bring freshness to the palate. This is our interpretation of a confidential Châteauneuf-du-Pape white.
Pale yellow color with golden hints, on the nose this wine delivers a pure and mineral expression deeply rooted in our terroirs. Great aromatic complexity (concentrated notes of pineapple, citrus, lemon) with a very good balance on the palate dominated both by tension and length.
