Note di degustazione
A partially barrel-fermented blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 30% Clairette, 20% Roussanne, 7% Picardan and 3% Bourboulenc, Perrin's 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is perhaps his finest to date. Scents of tangerine, stone fruit and anise appear on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is plump and fleshy yet not overdone, finishing clean, crisp and refreshing.

The 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc shimmers with straw reflections. It unfurls aromas of jasmine, pear, quince, lemon flesh, white peach, cedar and freshly-cut fennel. Medium to full-bodied, well-balanced and showing good energy, the finish of the 2021 Blanc is juicy and leaves a salty aftertaste.
Starting with the white, the 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc has a deeper hue and riper aromatics of quince and apricot-like fruits as well as some honeyed minerality. It’s medium-bodied, balanced, and enjoyable. Consistently solid wines emerge from Domaine Roger Perrin, and I feel like the quality here has been on the upswing over the past 4-5 years. The 2020s are outstanding across the board, and the estate looks to have made terrific wines in 2021 as well.
