Operated by successive generations of the Perrin family, Château de Beaucastel sits among the elite producers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The 2010 vintage was highly successful in the southern Rhône and this is a powerful, rich and sumptuously textured release absolutely perfect for drinking now. It is a classical blend of 30% Grenache, 30% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah and 10% Counoise, with the balance made up of the other permitted varieties in the appellation.
94 Vinous
Opaque ruby. Smoky blueberry and cherry compote aromas pick up a peppery nuance with air, along with a suave floral quality. Fleshy and seamless on the palate, offering sweet, deeply concentrated black and blue fruit flavors and a hint of lavender pastille. Spreads out and becomes spicier on the juicy, penetrating finish, which is framed by supple, slow-building tannins. Josh Raynolds1st April 2015
