2017 CLOS DE L'ORATOIRE DES PAPES CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE BLANC
"Hints of green banana and apricot are edged by crushed stone on the nose of this elegant dry white. A blend of equal parts Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Roussanne augmented by Bourboulenc, it offers sumptuous heft on the palate. Delightful now for its delicate, fresh-fruit flavors it should gain savory complexities well through 2030." Wine Enthusiast 92 points Drink 2023-30

A near carbon copy of the excellent 2016 version, the 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc Clos de l'Oratoire des Papes is an equal-parts blend of Bourboulenc, Clairette, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. One-fourth was barrel fermented-just enough to provide a sense of richness to the stone fruit and tangerine flavors, while finishing crisp, briny and fresh.

Slightly better, the 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Clos de L'Oratoire des Papes Blanc is equal parts Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Roussanne, and Clairette. It too has a green herb/green tea-like character as well as perfumed citrus fruits, medium body, good depth of fruit, and a refreshing, balanced style.
