Saturday, March 28, 2015 - Boasting a mesmerizing ruby ink core the 2010 Beaucastel CdP is an aromatic bomb packed with intense perfumes of blueberries, raspberries, menthol, tobacco leaf and burnt tar. This full bodied, luxuriously unctuous, yet delicate elixir delivers a generous 14.5% natural alcohol content and envelopes the palate with a delicious soft and silky texture. The flavours are equally intense in the form of creme de cassis, Grand Marnier and caramel, and the velvety finish goes on for nearly a full minute. This beauty will reach its maturity phase in a couple of years once the abundant tannins have fully integrated. It should then cruise comfortably in the cellar for two decades or more.
