Alain JaumeDomaine Grand Veneur Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Le Miocène 2024

About this wine

This is a white Châteauneuf-du-Pape from one of the Rhône Valley's most respected producers. If you've only tried the red versions of this legendary appellation, this white will surprise you with its depth and character.

The 2024 Le Miocène opens with delicate stone fruit and white flower aromas that immediately feel fresh and inviting. On the palate, you'll find a beautiful balance between the richness of Roussanne and the crisp minerality of Clairette. The wine has good body without being heavy, with subtle notes of citrus and almond that linger nicely on the finish.

This is the kind of wine that works beautifully with Mediterranean cuisine. Try it with grilled fish, seafood risotto, or even lighter poultry dishes. It pairs wonderfully with goat cheese and fresh vegetables too. Serve it well-chilled, around 10-12 degrees, and you'll get the best of what this wine has to offer.
