Vieux Telegraphe, Chateauneuf du Pape, Blanc 2006

Straw/yellow.

Lime flesh, pineapple, nut and earth aromas. Very fresh. Can't remember ever getting lime in CdP Blanc before.

Fresh and lifted in the mouth too. Flavors mirroring nose, with almond paste added and an emphasis on fresh pineapple. "Minerally", chewy finish. Not thick at all. Is this partly a result of a high percentage of Clairette? Long, subtle, chewy finish.
