The 1997 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Etienne Gonnet white is an interesting wine. Made from 50% Roussanne, 25% Clairette, and 25% Grenache Blanc, this partially barrel-fermented wine is excellent. It possesses deep concentration of fruit, full body, and enough acidity to provide definition and uplift. Consume it over the next 2-3 years.
