Famille Perrin

Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1989

1989 vintage. Decent fill and cork. Not decanted. Powdery, not chunky, sed. Tasted after 3.5 hours open. Light-medium body. Nose and flavors kept up the intensity in complete harmony. Special. Well-stored examples should yield similar pleasure for another 5-6 years. 03.29.25. — 7 months ago

I jad given up after the 2004, but will revisit, you must know I used to like them so much I even went there to visit...fyi I am not the only person who thinks they had problems starting around 2004. I will trust you that things have changed..or we maybe disagree on their wines a bit ?

Domaine de Marcoux

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2015

A lovely tarry note initially amongst the red fruits. On the medium weight palate sweet and savoury red fruits. Love CdP from a good year like this one. 70% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 10% Cinsault and the remaining 5% split between Muscardin, Counoise and Vaccarese. Completely destemmed and fruit driven. Soft pliant tannins. — 6 months ago
