2019 Chateau de Beaucastel Hommage Jacques Perrin Chateauneuf-du-PapeThis is really packed, with a stunning core of pure violet, raspberry and plum pte de fruit flavors that glide through seductively, belying the power that's in reserve, thanks to a well of singed alder and mesquite, worn leather and warm stone notes. The finish cuts a broad and deep swath, with the fruit showing serious staying power and superior definition. Mourvdre, Grenache, Counoise and Syrah. Best from 2025 through 2045.
