Chateauneuf-du-Pape blanc is always a rareoffering, and the total production of CDP white is only 7% of the total wine production for the appellation. Domaine de Beaurenard, however, has been harvesting and bottling CDP blanc since 1929. Completely organic and biodynamic, hand-harvested and fermented in inert vessels to preserve freshness, the wine is then aged in wood (only 10% new) and bottled early to maintain fruit and terroir expression.

The 2014 Lirac La Dame Rousse tastes just like the Cuvee de la Reine des Bois, only slightly less concentrated and more forward, with medium-bodied richness and a silky, polished feel on the palate. Its a smoking value that readers need to seek out.
