Operated by successive generations of the Perrin family, Château de Beaucastel sits among the elite producers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The 2007 release is a wonderful wine now exhibiting its glorious array of savoury complexity yet still retaining youthful vim and vigour. A sensational wine that sets a high benchmark for the region.

Beaucastel’s 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape has turned out even better out of bottle than I predicted. An inky/ruby/purple color is followed by a glorious nose of blue and black fruits, truffles, pen ink, licorice, and meat juices as well as glorious levels of acidity and sweet tannin, buttressing the fruit’s fabulous freshness and vibrancy. This full-bodied effort still displays considerable tannin, no doubt because of the relatively high Mourvedre content. It should resolve its tannins in 2-4 years, and last for 25 or more. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
94 Vinous
Deep ruby. Powerful, pungent aromas evoke kirsch, blackberry, smoky herbs and dried flowers. Energetic, penetrating cherry and dark berry flavors are enlivened by juicy acidity and given spine by a tangy mineral quality. A floral quality sneaks in with air, along with notes of allspice and star anise. The finish is sappy, focused and very long, with herbs and flowers lingering.Josh Raynolds1st January 2010
