2021 | Château de Beaucastel | Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Roussanne Vieilles Vignes

Medium greenish lemon with silver reflections. Fresh yellow tropical fruit, hints of ripe gooseberry, some blossom honey and caramel, candied lime zest: a multi-faceted bouquet that benefits from decanting. Juicy, very elegant, seems light on its feet, ripe yellow peach notes, and subtle fruit expression over a mineral texture. The wine is silky and balanced, a finessed food companion, and will gain length with maturity.

Producer Information

Château de Beaucastel is a wine producer based in Courthézon, in the northern Châteauneuf-du-Pape region of the southern Rhône. It makes some of the most famous wines in the whole of the Rhône Valley, from a classic southern Rhône blend that includes Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah, as well as the lesser-known Counoise and Cinsaut varieties. The estate reportedly dates back to 1549 when Pierre de Beaucastel bought a barn and a plot of vineyards in the region and inscribed his family's crest onto the walls. The land passed through the family until 1909, when it came under control of scientist Pierre Perrin. Today, Perrin's grandsons Jean-Pierre and François run the estate. The château is located in the northeast corner of the appellation, just southeast of the city of Orange. There are around 100 hectares (250 acres) planted to vine, three-quarters of which is used to make the Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC wines.
