Critic tasting note: "Starting to open and show nicely with a nose packed with spicy black raspberry, kirsch, jammy cherries, pepper, earth and garrigue. Rich textures and a long, soft, sweet, earthy, fresh, peppy, kirsch filled sensation make up the finish." - 93/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

- Vineyard Notes
-
Château de Beaucastel is 110 hectares, with one single plot at the north of the appellation. The terroir is archetypal of the best terroirs in Châteauneuf: rolled pebbles on the surface, sand, clay and limestone deeper down. The vines are old and have been organically grown for 50 years, which has allowed the roots to grow exceptionally deep. Beaucastel grows all thirteen grape varieties authorised by the appellation.

- Vintage Notes
-
A great vintage, this year is characterised by the contrast between an extremely hot July and a very cool August. September experienced heat and two heavy rain pours during the first half of the month. This did not hurt the quality of the vintage and we were able to harvest late with the beautiful Indian summer lasting until mid October.

- Harvest Notes
-
Each variety is harvested manually and separately.
- Winemaking
-
Vinification is completed in truncated oak barrels for the reductive grapes (Mourvèdre and Syrah) and in traditional tiled cement tanks for the oxidative grapes (such as Grenache). After the malolactic fermentations, the family blends the different varieties

Colour: dark and deep ruby with purple undertones. Nose: very rich with ripe black fruit, cherry, fig and slightly smoky. Mouth: round and powerful, great balance between the tannins and the body, with notes of red fruit. Good ageing potential

Very Good
2006 Vintage Saved: 23-Dec-2020
Balanced, tannins very fine and fully integrated, fruit more on the red side and still very much there, if anything I was missing complexity in a wine if this calibre. Length was very good but not outstanding. Drink now but definitely capable of keeping another decade.
Very Good
2006 Vintage Saved: 24-Jun-2018
Quite savoury, very smooth and well integrated. Not so much fruit but plenty of earthy, leathery, etc. Enjoyed with minted lamb burgers on the bar-b-q which brought out the sweetness nicely.

Vintage quality: Excellent
Current condition: Ready to drink
The 2006 Rhône vintage was excellent for both the North and the South.
The winter had been cold but extremely dry and although spring was pleasingly mild, it brought little in the way of relieving rains. June and July brought sizzling temperatures and more dry days...
