Château de Beaucastel
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
A decant and a large glass are needed for this fella as there is way to much pronounced Brett when you have this out of an ISO glass, munch better in a bigger bowl. Smoky, leather horseyness but bags of red berry fruit. Great acidity from the off with a smoky intensity

1996 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape - Silky texture with flavors of dried red pepper, strawberries and tea with great acidity and freshness. Drink now it's gorgeous.
