Château de Beaucastel
Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc · 2021
SUC94/100
This grandiose, golden-coloured white is rich and profound, reminiscent of crystallised fruit, lemon butter and yellow flower petals. A saline suggestion reinforces its elegance, leading us to the finish of a historic wine. Harvests have been rather earlier in recent years and the wines have not undergone malolactic fermentation, with the consequence of both meaning a great future is predicted.
