Grand Tinel's striking 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is a blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 25% Roussanne, 15% Clairette and 10% Bourboulenc, mostly made in stainless steel but with about 30% fermented and aged in barriques (one-third of which were new). Toasty, buttery notes accent honeyed peach, pear and pineapple fruit on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate offers crisp, juicy, mouthwatering balance to the ripe fruit flavors. A super effort, it delivers plenty of concentration and length on the finish.

The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is classic blend of 65% Grenache Blanc, 15% Clairette, 10% Roussanne and the rest Bourboulenc that had 80% aged in stainless steel and 20% in new barrels. It’s a medium-bodied, fresh and lively white that has lots of white peach, hints of pineapple, spice and charcoal to go with outstanding balance and integrated acidity. It picks up a touch of minerality and saltiness on the finish, and is a beautiful wine that will drink nicely for at least 3-4 years.

I loved Domaine du Grand Tinel’s 2014 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc, and this blend of 65% Grenache Blanc, 15% Clairette and the rest Roussanne and Bourboulenc offers a medium-bodied, crisp and lively profile to go with notes of lemon peel, buttered citrus blossom and light minerality. It’s a classy, high quality white to enjoy over the coming 2-3 years.
