Cuvée Réservée White

Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Jointly with the Red Réservée Wine, the White Réservée Wine with notes of white flowers and tangy yellow fruits brings to life the traditional white wines from Châteauneuf du Pape. With a small production of only 4,000 bottles, the Cuvée Réservée White shows the freshness and acidity of Clairette blended with the character of the white Grenache.
