Château de Beaucastel
Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2009
Beautifully mature CdP. Deep ruby with brick edges. The nose has evolved beautifully with dried cherries, fig, leather, garrigue herbs and that distinctive earthiness. The palate shows impressive concentration with dark fruit preserves, black olive, tobacco and spice notes. Full-bodied with resolved tannins that have softened while maintaining structure. The finish is long and complex with waves of tertiary flavors that continue to evolve in the glass. [Rhone Roots 2025, Lumiere London]
