Dedicated to the former cellar master of Château Beaucastel, the 2020 Château de Beaucastel "Hommage à Jacques Perrin" is a legendary representative of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, if not the leader of these renowned wines.
Produced according to biodynamic principles, the 2020 is also the essence of what can be understood as the purest and truest expression of its terroir. 2020 was not as hot a year as 2019 in the southern Rhône, but did not offer difficult weather conditions, but a constant, slightly windy climate. The harvest could be carried out without time pressure, so that plot by plot could be harvested for the best ripeness.
75% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah, 10% Grenache and 5% Counoise make up the cuvée, which is of great complexity, rich in black fruits, ripe oranges, cigar, spring flowers and lots of spices. At this point, James Suckling should be quoted, who ascribes "myriad nuances" to the grape juice. Decanter calls it "stylish and seductive", while Robert Parker even predicts that it will achieve a three-digit score.
An outstanding Châteauneuf-du-Pape, with correspondingly fabulous ratings:
- James Suckling 99/100
- Decanter: 98/100
- Robert Parker: 97-99/100
