Domaine de la Janasse, Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2017
Domaine de la Janasse makes one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape's most compelling white wines, a rich blend of Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette that captures the sun-baked intensity of this legendary Southern Rhône appellation. The Sabon family have farmed here since 1973, building a reputation for wines that balance power with elegance. This 2017 has reached full maturity, showing honeyed stone fruit wrapped around a core of mineral precision that only comes from old vines and exceptional terroir. Both generous and structured, it offers the immediate pleasure of ripe fruit whilst maintaining the tension that makes white Châteauneuf so distinctive.
JCP Maltus, Le Nardian Blanc 2014
Le Nardian is the product of a wager between their now-retired Consulting Oenologue, Gilles Pauquet (also consultant to Chateau Cheval Blanc, Figeac and Canon) and JCP Maltus, that a low cropped white would see similar benefits to a red wine. Le Nardian has, as one of its major components, Muscadelle - a cousin of Viognier. They manage to get an almost Rhône-style sense with the wine as its aromatic quality comes to the fore.
