Youthfully coiled, this features loads of white peach, yellow apple, green fig and melon flavors at the core, surrounded by notes of jasmine, acacia and honeysuckle. Shows beautiful purity through the finish, with a long quinine thread adding even more nuance. The rare white Châteauneuf to cellar. Best from 2016 through 2024. From France.—J.M.
