NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc is a crisp and dynamic white wine with aromas of white flowers, white stone fruits, and a hint of citrus zest. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and elegant, with a creamy texture and flavors of white peach, honeydew melon, and a hint of spice.The finish is long and refreshing, with a bright acidity that lingers. This is a wonderfully structured and balanced white wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared for several years.

ORIGINS
Winery: Château de Beaucastel
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
