Perrin & fils, Les sinards, Chateauneuf du Pape White 2005 in winereviewonline
2005 is our first release of Châteauneuf les sinards white. Here is the review by Michael Apstein.
With only about 5% of the area's production devoted to white wine--and much of that heavy and unappealing--one sometimes wonders why anyone bothers with white Châteauneuf-du-Pape. This wine is why. A blend of 75% Grenache Blanc and 25% Clairette, it has the hint of apricot common in many whites from the southern Rhône, and good intensity, but without a trace of heaviness. Its minerality or stoniness makes it refreshing. 90 points
