Château de Beaucastel Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2016

Red
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, France

Inky and imposing, with crushing density that coats the palate. Black fruit, garrigue, leather and graphite build in waves. The tannins are formidable. This needs serious cellaring to reach its potential. A powerhouse built for decades. Drink 2030-2055.

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.
