In a few words ...
This cuvée is an equal blend of Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussane, Bourboulenc, Picardan and Picpoul. A must-have in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation! Clos des Papes offers a wine of great elegance, combining aromatic richness and fresh, taut structure. A great wine for ageing and gastronomy.
"Clos des Papes blanc 2020 presents aromas of pear, grapefruit, aniseed and also has a floral side. On the palate, we find a mineral character, lots of freshness, which augurs well for ageing, and as is often the case, a certain salinity. It will go very well with fish, poultry, scallops or lobster, as well as certain cheeses. It is comparable to the 2019 with a little less power and great finesse."

Domaine Paul Avril
Domaine Paul Avril is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 17 wines available to purchase, including the wine Clos Des Papes 2020.
Appellation
Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The appellation Châteauneuf-du-Pape is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Paul Avril and its 17 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
