Château de Beaucastel 2017

Rhone Valley - Châteauneuf-du-Pape - Red Wine -

Château de Beaucastel 2017 is a sublime vintage from the star of Châteauneuf-du-Pâpe signed by the Perrin family. This is the vintage of all records: the driest year for 30 years, wine-growing work with very little intervention, optimal harvesting conditions, very small quantities due to climatic hazards and wines with very rich potential.

This 2017 vintage comes from a complex blend: 30% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, 10% Counoise, 5% Cinsault and 10% of a blend of Vaccarèse, Terret Noir, Muscardin, Clairette, Picpoul, Picardan , Bourboulenc and Roussanne. Since the 1960s, the thirteen grape varieties of the appellation have been cultivated organically.

The 2017 vintage has a sustained to fairly deep color. The pure and elegant nose evokes slightly kirsch cherries, blackcurrant, spices, with floral notes, aromatic herbs (bay leaf), and light chocolate. The palate is elegant, ripe and fine tannins, nice dense and concentrated structure, with a seductive velvety texture enhanced by finely spiced fruit. The finish is long, well held by elegant and coated tannins, harmonious and very persistent (fruits, spices, floral notes). A great vintage!

An exceptional vintage rated 95/100 by Jeb Dunuck

"The 2017 Châteauneuf Du Pape is another sunny, beautifully Provençal effort that has a huge nose of garrigue, raw steak, leather, truffle, and peppery spice. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and balanced, it's not a massive Beaucastel yet it has a classic, Provençal, incredibly satisfying style that will benefit from 4-6 years of bottle age and keep for two decades "

The advice of 12bouteilles: This very beautiful vintage of Château de Beaucastel will be able to stay in the cellar for 10 years or more! Decant it if possible before serving around 15 ° C.
