Chante Cigale’s 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc is a gorgeous snapshot of southern Rhône sunshine in a glass—floral, fleshy, and laced with salty minerality.

The classic blend includes Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Clairette, and Bourboulenc, offering ripe stone fruit (peach, pear), citrus peel, honeysuckle, and a creamy texture balanced by a zippy thread of freshness. It’s fuller-bodied but never heavy—perfectly poised between richness and drinkability.

This white is made to drink young, but with enough structure and depth to evolve gracefully over 3–5 years. It’s one of those rare Rhône whites that plays beautifully at the table and feels like a little celebration on its own.

Perfect for: grilled fish, herby roast chicken, Provençal vegetables, or simply a sunny afternoon with great company.

"Mixing Bourboulenc, Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Picpoul and Roussanne in equal proportions, the 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc shows well. Vivid spring blossom aromas complement yellow apple, ripe pear and cedar tones. Full-bodied and rich, the 2023 is seamlessly balanced by fresh acidity. It finishes with good length on the fruit-driven close." —Nicolas Greinacher

"The 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is derived from vines planted on pebble, limestone and brown soils. Revealing a shy, closed bouquet, it offers up aromas of white flowers and lemon. Medium-bodied, fresh and juicy, it's a bit austere in the finish. Composed of equal parts Grenache Blanc, Picpoul Blanc, Bourboulenc, Roussanne and Clairette, it's matured for six months in a combination of wooden tanks (12%), large barrels (3%), new barrels (2%), used barrels (6%) and egg-shaped tanks (7%); the rest is in stainless steel." —Yohan Castaing

"Pear, oatmeal and apricot notes - really fresh and appealing. Very well balanced, Chante Cigale's Tradition blanc is consistently one of the best-value white Châteaunuefs. There's a subtle spicing that runs through the wine, bringing interest and complexity. Good balance of richness and freshness makes for an approachable and delicious wine. Drink now, but will age into the medium term without any problems. 20% each of Grenache Blanc, Picpoul Blanc, Bourboulenc, Roussanne and Clairette. Fermented with natural yeasts, no sulfite additions until bottling."

Wine Spectator

"A delicious, bouncy style, with an attractive mix of aloe, star fruit and nectarine notes that are glossy in feel on a supple palate. Savory acidity pulses throughout, and impressive inner density emerges on the unadorned, well-chiseled finish. Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Picpoul, Bourboulenc and Clairette."

Wine Enthusiast

94 points

"This wine opens with vibrant aromatics of fresh citrus, green pear, quince, and tangerine, beautifully complemented by wild white flowers. On the palate, it offers a gentle yet nuanced experience, with notes of white peach, lemon zest, brioche, almonds, and a hint of sea salt. The texture is refined, supported by a lively acidity that invites immediate enjoyment. Perfectly suited for pairing with fresh salads, it's a wine that shines in the moment." —Anna-Christina Cabrales
