Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc

Châteauneuf-du-Pape is almost always red; only one in sixteen bottles is white. That makes white Châteauneuf a very exclusive white wine. And if it happens to be from top producer Le Clos du Caillou, the celebration is complete.

Les Safres is a blend of white Rhône grapes Grenache Blanc, Clairette, and Roussanne from vines averaging 40 years old. The grapes originate from the lieux-dits Pignan and Bédines. The soil here consists of various types of sand, including 'safres', the local name for a compact, sandy terroir. It is this soil type that provides finesse in the wine.

The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted. Fermentation takes place in small wooden vats. A small portion of these vats is new, the vast majority are used. After fermentation, maturation follows for several months, also in small wooden vats.

Although there is limited availability, we strongly urge you to try and secure a bottle of this exceptional white wine. Les Safres is opulent, complex, tropical, and highly gastronomic. Think of delicious dishes such as sweetbreads, morels, or truffles. To allow the wine to reach its full potential, we recommend decanting it before serving.
