2023 Domaine Durieu Lucile Avril Blanc 750ml

Domaine Durieu was founded in 1976 when Lucile Avril gave her son Paul a few hectares of vines as a wedding present; the estate’s top white cuvee now bears her name. Lucile Avril Blanc blends Grenache Blanc and Roussanne with a touch of Picpoul, grown within the Chateauneuf-du-Pape appellation.

Expect white-fleshed fruit and floral aromatics with subtle sweet spice, leading into a soft, silky palate of pear, white peach and citrus balanced by fine acidity and a long, slightly mineral finish. It is an elegant, food-friendly Chateauneuf-du-Pape white named in tribute to the family matriarch.
