Caress Cuvee Blanc 2023

$39

Caress Cuvee Blanc is a California version of a Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc. It is a lush, complex, long-lived white wine in the typical Southern Rhône style. The aroma is like a bouquet of flowers, and the flavor is of freshly sliced white peach and lime. This wine is very food-friendly.

This full-bodied white wine has an inviting light gold color in the glass. On the nose, it has a lovely fresh spring floral bouquet ending with a just a waft of honeysuckle. In the mouth, it has a nice hint of fruit flavor, perhaps white peach and honeydew melon. This wine is typical of Southern Rhône in style, and its notes of lime and white peach make it very food-friendly.
Four beautiful white wines blended as a best-of-the-best cuvée to make an extremely unique white wine in the style of a Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc.

Some new French oak with the majority being neutral Burgundy barrels.
