  White Chateaneuf was my big discovery in 2019. At first sip it is easy to underestimate, but be aware: it is most often a complex and delicate cocktail of white grapes, powerfull and versatile and a wonderfull companion at the diner table. Only for red meat you should switch to the red neighbour. Not cheap, but quality has its price.’

  Slightly disappointed. It was a decent wine, but maybe my expectations were too high, their rouge was far better.
