2020 vintage. Anne-Laure Sicard made very nice wine from the beginning (first vintage 2016), but they get better and better. This 2020 is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault and it shows huge potential. — 3 years ago
E’ molto interessante. A mia moglie piace molto. Sarebbe raro di trovare Chataunuf di pape blanc. Ha il corpo abbastanza, allo stesso tempo assagio l’accodita abbastanza. E equibilibrato. Ho avuto altri quattro bottelie. — 8 years ago

👁 pale golden
👃clean, pronounced intensity, complex intense flavor of passion fruit, overripe lemon, honeysuckle with hint of vanilla toast and honey. This wine is fully developed.
👅Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol, medium(+) body. Pronounced intensity of passion fruit and ripe lemon, dried apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, brioche hint of kerosine. Long finish.
🎯 outstanding quality, can drink now but has potential for aging (should survive few more years) — 9 years ago
Meu primeiro #chateauneufdepape. E não é da Olivier e Lafont. É do Jean Laffite. Achei bem equilibrado no frutado, no álcool e na acidez. Bem do bom. — 9 years ago
@Delectable Wine, this is 100% Clairette Blanche.
N:Waxy Asian pears, oranges, white flowers. Not perfume or talc, a straight shot. A bit of sand and sweatiness.
P: Honeysuckle, chamomile, luscious onthe palate and bright. I know/see there have been detractors but I also know of a fan club, count us in. 7 yrs certainly doesn’t hurt. It has that great waxy thing of the Rhone. So glad it was recommended. — 3 years ago
Gérald Lafont and Baptiste Olivier are known throughout France as two of the Rhône Valley's top oenologists. A blend of 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah, dark fruit and flinty aromas. On the palate blackberry and cranberry flavors with floral spice tones wrapped in smooth tannins. Medium+ finish ending with s bright mineral character. Nice. Tasting Sample. — 8 years ago
