An enticing blend of 70% Clairette and 30% Roussanne, the 2024 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc unwinds with fresh pear, yellow apple, honeysuckle and a whiff of lemon flesh. Medium-bodied at a mere 13% alcohol, the 2024 carries impeccable freshness, winding down with notable length on the sapid finish. This is drinking really well today. (NG)
