Shipping calculated at checkout.
Chateau de Beaucastel has long been regarded as one of the greatest wines in France. It is notorious for its elegance, balance and ageing potential. Beaucastel has an exceptional 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. The production of white wine at Beaucastel is limited as we only have 7 hectares of white vines planted. The main variety is Roussanne, representing 80% of the blend. Handpicked in small cases, sorting of the grapes, pneumatic pressing, settling of the juice, fermentation (30% in oak barrels, 70% in tanks) for 8 months. Bottling after 8 months in oak barrels.   Beaucastel white 2019 has a beautiful shiny golden colour. The nose is simply irresistible: ample and complex, it reveals a sumptuous bouquet with notes of roasted pineapple and subtly mixed white flowers. Very elegant, this wine then has a superb, opulent, delicately oaky texture in the mouth, with aromas of white flowers, honey and a zest of citrus before offering a long saline finish. You can enjoy bottles today with a decant or cellar for two to three decades, if you’re so inclined.   Jeb Dunnuck: 95Pts; Decanter: 94Pts; Robert Parker: 92Pts, Jancis Robinson: 17+/20   Crafted from organically-grown grapes
