Why We're Buying
Domaine du Pegau Châteauneuf-du-Pape A Tempo is a proportional blend of clairette, roussanne, and grenache blanc. The result is a light and airy white wine that draws people in with notes of honeysuckle and jasmine. The body offers layers of lively acids and minerality that dance around the mid-palate.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
There are 1,200 bottles of the 2017 Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc Cuvée A Tempo, which was made in a combination of barriques and concrete egg. Equal parts Clairette, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne, it's less toasty than the 2018, with crisp, focused citrus notes and tremendous length on the finish. It should drink well for a decade or more.
