Details and technical informations about Winery La Font du Vent's Cuvée Tradition Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc.
Discover the grape variety: Bourboulenc
Fresh and aromatic whites with an ample palate and preserved acidity despite the sun, on discreet aromas of white flowers (broom), citrus, exotic fruits, fennel and saline marine notes. Very late-ripening, retaining freshness in hot climates. Essential component of white Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC, white Côtes-du-Rhône and Bandol blanc, and the absolute signature of La Clape AOC. Native southern French variety with very late ripening.

The wine region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Pinnacle of great southern Rhône reds, up to 13 blended grapes: signature Grenache as king — powerful and structured with notes of black cherry, kirsch, garrigue, leather, tar and sweet spices, firm tannins when young and gamey complexity with ageing. Deep Syrah, dense Mourvèdre and supple Cinsault complete it. Rare full whites (Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne) with almond, anise, honeysuckle notes. Legendary AOC (1936), rolled pebbles, mistral and sun.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Côte des Blancs
One of the most famous terroirs of the Champagne region, from Épernay to Vertus, mainly devoted to Chardonnay, hence its name. The villages of Chouilly, Cramant, Cuis, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, etc., lying on the chalk, are in a way to Champagne what Meursault, Chablis and Puligny are to Burgundy.
