Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 2017

Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Rouge Red Wine 2017 has long been regarded as one of France's most exceptional wines. It is notorious for its elegance, balance, and aging potential. Beaucastel has an extraordinary terroir at the Northern limit of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, exposed to the Mistral wind. All thirteen varieties of the appellation have been organically grown since the sixties.

This 2017 vintage has a deep color. It offers the pure and elegant nose that suggests cherries, blackcurrants, spices, floral notes, aromatic herbs (Bayleaf), and chocolate. The mouth is beautiful, and the tannins are the ripe and elegant, beautifully dense and concentrated structure, a seductive velvety texture enhanced with finely spicy fruit. The finish is long, held by polished and coated tannins, harmonious and very persistent (fruit, spice, floral notes). Its a great vintage wine! Enjoy!
