Faktisk ville man have forventet, at Clairette sammen med Grenache Blanc og Roussanne ville give en hvid Chateauneuf. Men ikke her! Alle bringes til et klimaks hver for sig. Hver druesort er en stor verden for sig selv! Clairette plantet på ren kalksten, gæret og modnet i barriques. Fin, meget aromatisk, eksotisk næse med vanilje fra det nye træ. Papaya med mango og appelsinskal, hvid fersken, jasmin. Tørret ananas, maracuya. Flint, gul pære og karamel fra træet, så endelig cremet hvid kalksten med salt og citrus. Spændende og lækker! 97-98/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Les Clairettes de Gabriel

I loved the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Clairette de Gabriel and this beauty is up there with the finest whites in the vintage. All Clairette planted in limestone soils, this vivid gold-hued beauty offers a beautiful, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, balanced style as well as classic notes of white flowers, dried pineapple, honeycomb, and subtle waxy nuances. It’s rich yet stays weightless and elegant, with a terrific sense of freshness (although I suspect the acidity is quite low) and purity. It’s going to evolve for 10-15 years or more, although there’s no need to delay gratification. Château de Vaudieu is located in the center of the Chateauneuf du Pape appellation, just south of Rayas. The estate is impeccably run by Laurent Bréchet with the winemaking falling to consultant Philippe Cambie. Today they release a number of special cuvees based largely on individual parcels around the domaine. The winemaking can be thought of as quasi-modern, with most of the wines destemmed and brought up in older barrels and demi-muids. New oak is kept to a minimum and the wines always show Provençal, elegant characters. In addition to the brilliant reds, this estate fashions some of the greatest whites in the appellation!97/100

Wine Spectator om: Les Clairettes de Gabriel

Alluring, with lemon curd, heather and macadamia notes out front, followed by yellow apple, white peach and mirabelle plum notes. The long finish is both showy and defined, with a hint of white truffle lurking, ready to blossom with cellaring if that's your bag, though hard to lay off it now. Drink now through 2027. 96/100
