Bright straw gold. Abundant nose of white flowers and dried yellow tropical fruit. Full-bodied palate echoes the nose adding white pepper, honeycomb, nuts, sweet corn, and a host of smaller layers. A firm backbone of acidity runs throughout from entry to finish. We all know CdP as a red wine, but its white counterpart should be on everyone’s list. The offering by Domaine de la Presidente (from the classic 2015 vintage) is an excellent entry point into this facet of Rhône wines. Well suited to pair with roasted chicken, pork loin, swordfish, game fowl, or root/green vegetable combinations. Drink now through 2025. — 5 years ago
Tastes like berries but then develops into a firm tartness. Great smell, thin mouth feel, black cherry, beautiful purple ruby color — 7 years ago
Super velvety mouthfeel. Good acid. Delicious! — 6 years ago
Surprising balance! Excellent for an oxidized sample, and certainly worth trying fresh. I don't think it'll upend Dolin, but for a lil' extra sumpin' in your Presidente it'll work well. — 7 years ago
Bright yellow gold. Abundant nose of tropical fruits and ripe pomes. This is echoed on the lush, full-bodied palate adding underripe pineapple, orange rind, white pepper, and honeysuckle. All of that wrapped around a backbone of juicy medium plus acidity entry to medium finish. Rich autumn fare is its best friend, but sippers could enjoy this as a flavorful winter white. Drink now through 2027. — 2 years ago
Lovely blend. Juicy fruit, acidic with a medium body. Very drinkable. Perfect with pork ribs! — 5 years ago
