The 2005 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape blanc, a blend of 80% Roussanne and 20% white Grenache fermented 80% in tank and 20% in barrel, has exuberant notes of honeysuckle, rose water, and hazelnuts. It is medium to full-bodied, rich, and certainly one of the finest of the white Chateauneuf du Papes. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802

Light gold. Full-blown tropical and citrus fruits on the nose, with a sexy white flower quality. Impressively fresh and poised, with mineral notes bracing ripe pineapple and orange flavors. A sweet suggestion of honey lingers on the juicy, round, very long finish.
