Grand Veneur Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 'La Fontaine'

The Domaine Grand Veneur 'La Fontaine' cuvée bears the name of its vineyard plot and is made exclusively from the Roussanne variety fermented in oak barrels. 

Yellow-gold colour, the nose is rich in aromas of citrus fruit, tropical fruit, quince and honey, with a touch of vanilla. On the palate, the same aromas appear together with a fatness combining exotic fruit and vanilla: the wine is rich, generous and elegant, with extraordinary length. La Fontaine is often considered to be one of the best Chateauneuf-du-Pape white, and it is by definition a superb gastronomy wine. Best with fish dishes in sauce or foie gras, white meat and delicate cheeses.

"Intensely ripe yellow-apple and stone-fruit flavors have a slightly tropical flair in this rich but pristine, fruity Roussanne. It's full bodied and plush but structured by pleasantly bitter tea tannins and a hint of spicy orange zest." (2016 vintage) 91 points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine, January 2018
