Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin Red 2012

495.00 € Tax included

This 2012 Château de Beaucastel Hommage à Jacques Perrin is an exceptional cuvée from the estate, a magnificent red Châteauneuf-du-Pape that the Perrin family decided to make in honour of their father. It comes mainly from very old vines, mainly Mourvèdre, and small yields giving small quantities of intensely ripe and concentrated fruit. This cuvée is only produced in great vintages.

It has a dark ruby colour and powerful aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, spice, leather and game. It is a very concentrated wine, very fat on the palate with perfectly melted and velvety tannins.

Château de Beaucastel is one of the most renowned estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and produces exceptional red and white wines. It is one of the pioneers of organic farming introduced in the 60s and biodynamics introduced in 1974. Find the wines of Château de Beaucastel currently on sale at La Bouteille Dorée.
