Famille Perrin Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc Les Sinards - 2025
Presentation
This rare, limited quantity wine is made from parcels managed by Beaucastel team. It is characterized by its elegance, its freshness, and its immediate accessibility.
Ageing
From the month of August onwards we carry out maturity checks and taste the berries regularly to determine the optimum harvest date. The grapes are immediately pressed on their arrival in the cellar in a pneumatic press. The must is then chilled and cold settled, with no intrants used. Each grape variety is vinified separately. Fermentation begins in the vat, and straight away the must is transferred into demi-muid barrels with regular stirring to add smoothness and structure. This is an essential process to preserve the texture and add richness and complexity to the wine, notably for the Clairette which is a fairly delicate grape. After several months in barrel the wine is lightly fined before being bottled. Our objective in making this wine is to seek out maximum freshness and finesse.
The vintage
The 2025 vintage is shaping up to be a very good year in the Southern Rhône. The hot, sunny summer encouraged excellent concentration in the grapes, while the cool nights preserved aromatic freshness and good acidity levels, essential for balanced wines. Despite the heat and some rain at the end of the harvest, the grapes remained remarkably healthy, with particularly concentrated fruit and controlled yields. Initial tastings reveal expressive wines with powerful aromas of ripe black fruit such as blackcurrants and blackberries, notes of rosemary, thyme, and lavender, characteristic of the garrigue. Their generous structure, driven by vibrancy, and balanced by a lovely freshness, suggests an excellent vintage.
