Château de Beaucastel Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2014

Châteauneuf-du-Pape, France
8.0
WineSaint
Outrageously dense and powerful, with wild cherry, lavender, cedar and exotic spice building in waves. The fruit shows remarkable depth and persistence, while firm tannins provide serious backbone. Built for decades of cellaring.
