Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Rayas 1998 is a white wine from the renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation in the Southern Rhône Valley. This vintage is primarily a blend of Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Bourboulenc, showcasing a pale golden hue with subtle hints of orange at the rim. The palate reveals notes of stone fruit, citrus zest and herbal undertones, alongside a mineral backbone. Rayas vineyard, operated by the esteemed Domaine Rayas, is known for its strict organic farming practices, which contribute to the wine`s authenticity and expression of terroir.

Vinous
Less fruity and more reticent on the nose than the '99; hints of peach skin, hay, spice and nuts. Fat and spicy in the mouth, with a lemony note but not quite the cut or the flavor development of the '99.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2001
