About this Wine

100 POINTS - Jeb Dunnuck
"Coming from 100% galets roulés soils, the 2024 Châteauneuf Du Pape Le Plateau Blanc is based on 70% Grenache Blanc and 30% Clairette, vinified and aged entirely in new French oak barrels. It brings another level of depth, richness, and complexity, with orange blossom, mint, toasted spices, and caramelized peach all shining here. Medium to full-bodied, it has a concentrated, layered mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a stunning finish. This unquestionably stands as one of the wow wines of the vintage, offering a rare mix of purity, precision, and richness, and can be kept for 20-25 years if you're so inclined. Hats off to Pierre Fabre and the whole team at Mont-Redon. Drink 2025-2050."

With Le Plateau Blanc Pierre has created another vision of white Châteauneuf by highlighting the salinity and texture of the galets roulés terroir of the plateau, while maintaining freshness and balance through a significant proportion of Clairette in the blend.

65 % Grenache Blanc and 35 % Clairette from the plateau, settled and cool-fermented at 14° in a mix of new and second-use 360 litre barrels and 220 litre glass Wineglobes (20 %). Post ferment, the wine is given a weekly batonnage until May and then left untouched on lees until bottling in July 2025. Super limited.

Wines of Rhone Valley

The Rhone wine region is situation in the south of France in the Rhone Valley. The region is split into north and south with distinctively different winemaking styles. In the north, the main grape used is Syrah and is sometimes blended with white varietals. In the south however, reds are a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault. You may be familiar with this sort of blend; in Australia it is labelled GSM.

Wines are produced under various Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) designations. The most prestigious of which is Chateauneuf-du-Pape. You may also have heard of other AOC names such as Gigondas, Hermitage, Lirac, St Joseph. Wines coming from these and other AOCs are all on the higher end of the market.

On the value end we have wines produced in Cotes-du-Rhone AOC. Cotes-du-Rhone often refers to wines made in the Rhone Valley that do not fall under any other AOC, often from the flatter areas around Southern Rhone. However, it also does include the fringes of well-respected northern appellations as well. In terms of volume, a majority of Rhone wine falls under the Cotes-du-Rhone AOC and it offers some of the best value in France and even some first-rate and age-worthy reds.

Full-bodied and flavourful white wine blends are also made in the region. These are typically a combination of Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne and Viognier.
