Brotte Les Hauts de Barville Chateauneuf du Pape blanc 2021

Straw yellow with golden highlights. On the nose, white flowers and white-fleshed stone fruits evolving into notes of buttery hazelnuts. Honey hints develop over ageing. Mouth-filling and plump with honey and fresh ripe fruits (peach, white currant). Great length with an elegant citrus finish. Serve as an aperitif or enjoy with main course salads, crusty seabass and foie gras, lobster in mild spices, roast chicken with crayfish, or with desserts of apple pie or crème caramel.
The appellation Châteauneuf-du-Pape is mainly reknown for its red wines. However, it also produces around 6% of whites of equally high quality. “Les Hauts de Barville” is mainly produced from our family estate Domaine Barville, located at the west of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape village. Out of the 15ha, 2.10 ha are planted with white varieties. To create a wine of great complexity, we add Bouboulenc and Clairette to our Grenache and Roussanne, through the partnership with two winegrowers who cultivate on the exceptional terroirs of Rayas.
