Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape has an unusually high proportion of Mourvèdre, giving compelling wines loaded with dark fruit and spice. 2017 was a great vintage for this outstanding, organic winery.
“A tremendous effort, might Beaucastel's 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape outshine even the 2016? I tasted a preliminary blend that Marc Perrin said represented 80% of the wine, and it showed ridiculous floral and fresh aromas of licorice, lavender and spice, all backed by tremendous fruit that went beyond black and red and into hints of exotic stone fruit. The final blend will likely contain more than 10% Counoise, the highest proportion ever utilized at the estate. It's rich and concentrated yet silky and lithe, with a fantastically long, elegant finish.” 95-97/100 Wine Advocate
