| Chateau/Producer: | Beaucastel | | Country: | France | | AOC: | Chateneuf Du Pape | | Region: | Chateneuf Du Pape | | Wine Score: | 95 | | Notes: | Ruby red in color with a slight pink edge. Nose of eucalyptus, but nowhere near as dominant as the 90 and revealing more fruit and complexity. Medium-bodied. In contrast to the 90, this wine was explosive, almost with a new world-type up front character but instead of revealing sweetness, a very refined, complex and mysteriously benign yet intriguing finish. Beautifully balanced. 94-95 | | Tasting Date: | 2003-12-22 | | Varietal: | Mourvedre, Grenache, Counoise, Syrah, Cinsault | | Source: | Cellared |
