The palate shows impressive concentration. Ripe melon, fennel and honeyed citrus wrapped in nervy acidity. Tightly wound now, this old-vine Roussanne demands patience. Needs five years minimum. Drink 2025-2040.

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.
