Château de Beaucastel Roussane Vieilles Vignes Blanc 2020
Rhone Valley - Châteauneuf-du-Pape - White Wine -Château de Beaucastel Roussannes Vieilles Vignes 2020 is one of the greatest white wines in France. This is the wonder of Château de Beaucastel which produces only 6,000 bottles per year.
100% from very old Roussannes, picked up slightly over-ripe, this exceptional wine should be drunk within 2-3 years or in 10 years.
Tasting Note:
The color: deep golden.
The nose: rich and complex offers a bewitching bouquet with notes of toast, peach and beeswax.
On the palate: Elegance takes precedence, the perfect balance between freshness and complexity. Roussanne indeed brings its magnificent richness and opulent texture, perfectly balanced by a superb freshness with beautiful aromas of white flowers, honey, crushed almonds and citrus zest.
The long finish reveals an exceptional salinity specific to Beaucastel and a sign of a great vintage.
"Even better, the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes comes from a single parcel of very old vines and is 100% Roussanne brought up in barrel. It too is medium to full-bodied and incredibly concentrated, with brilliant white currants, green almond , honeyed mineral, and spice-driven aromas and flavors. The balance is just about perfect, as is the purity of fruit, and this incredible white is one of the top releases in the vintage. As I've written in the past, it's the Montrachet of the Southern Rhône and can evolve for decades in cold cellars. " 98/100 Jeb Dunnuck.
The advice of 12bouteilles: taste it at a temperature of 10 ° C, it is a fine gastronomic white perfect with truffled poultry or white meats.
