Janasse Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2020

96 points Decanter: “Not particuarly expressive on the nose, but long and focused. The oak works as a tight corset, shaping the wine and pulling in any excess weight. Remarkably fresh and vibrant, with a tight mineral seam and a little dab of fresh cream on the long finish, alongside fresh pear and nutmeg. Try to keep this for a while before opening, until at least 2025. Drink: 2022-2035. (Apr 2022)”

92 points James Suckling: “I love the very fresh white-flower and honeycomb aromas of this rich and creamy dry white. With a bit of aeration notes of lemon zest and lavender develop. The well-judged tannins nicely support the long, silky finish. Drink or hold. (3/21/22)”
