Domaine Chante Cigale Extrait Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2022

Tasting Notes

A touch smoky, flinty, this is tight and tense on the palate, dry and savoury. It's really quite focused, never overly fat, with a long, straight finish. Should age with interest. Domaine Chante Cigale continues to rise up the rankings of white Châteauneuf producers - consistently excellent. Perfect balance. Fermented then aged for 10 months in demi-muids. Drinking window: 2023-2030. (Matt Walls,decanter.com,Nov. 15, 2023)
