    In a few words ...

    With few white grape varieties in the appellation, we are proud to be able to produce our Clos du Roi, a confidential cuvée of around 4,000 bottles a year. Full of finesse and roundness, this white wine exhales aromas of white flowers, hawthorn and exotic fruit.

    This white Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a delight. It was excellent with just-snacked scallops. It's rich but it's good!
