La Chasse des Princes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2023

2023 vintage is a blend of 60% Grenache Blanc, 30% Roussane, 10% Clairette in limited quantities.

Cellier des Princes winery has been producing premium Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the Rhône Valley since 1925.

The La Chasse des Princes range was introduced in 2017 and is dedicated to gastronomic wines matching with a range of hearty dishes, as each label depicts.

Along with delicate and subtle aromas, the wine shows elements of honeywax, stone fruits, underripe plum and peach with floral notes of acacia or hawthorn. The texture is a sublime balance between acidity, fruit and alcohol. Perfect when matched with shellfish, chicken in cream and goat cheese.

Peter Zemmer

Chardonnay 2023

89 points - Wine Spectator

“A pretty, light-bodied white, with flavors of

poached pear, melon, apple blossoms and

cut and stony on the finish.”

Renzo Masi

Erta e China 2022

90 points - James Suckling

“Aromas of red fruit, mild spices and hints of cedar and cocoa on the nose. Fresh and crunchy on the palate, with a medium body and chewy, slightly

angular tannins. Yet it’s balanced overall.”

Ceralti Vermentino Bolgheri 2023

90 points - Wine Spectator

“Earthy and matchstick aromas give way to flavors of macerated peach, bitter grapefruit peel, honey and sage in this complex white. Supple and balanced,

with a lingering finish.”

Fattoria di Basciano

Vin Santo del Chianti 2016

90 points - Wine Enthusiast

“This coppery brown wine has aromas of dried apricot, tangerine peel, milk chocolate and macadamia nut, notes that

all reappear on the palate, which also has a sunny citrus element that rides the current of a warm acid stream.”
