Bright citrus oil and white flowers open to a palate of impressive tension. Tart pear and bitter orange pith carry through the long, stony finish. The acidity feels perfectly pitched, giving this southern Rhône white real energy and drive.

Château de Beaucastel

Beaucastel is one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape's benchmark estates, long associated with Mourvèdre-driven reds of unusual density and age-worthiness, and whites built substantially on Roussanne.
