Product description
En Primeur Châteauneuf du Pape Beaucastel will be available for delivery or storage once it lands in the UK, usually two years following the en primeur offer.
Château de Beaucastel is surrounded by hills planted with vines, hundred-year-old olive trees and truffle oaks. Here nature is blooming, liberated and at ease. Ancient vines with knotted roots are nurtured in the traditional ‘gobelet’ style in the soil typical of the region, laden with large round pebbles. When the Mistral blows – the legendary wind from the Alps – it whistles down the Rhône Valley cooling the vines and revealing aromas of Garrigue.
Very inviting nose, liquorice, dark crushed cassis, leather, strawberry jam – earthy dark spice. A supple and ripe palate with good freshness and acidity throughout. Tight and fine, firm tannins, dark fruits, liquorice, thyme and a ripe savoury-tinged finish. Wonderful.
