2000 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Red Rhone Blend more

5/5/2024 - TheGreenFrog Likes this wine: 93 points

I have had considerable bottle variation with the 2000, but this bottle was very good. Decanted three hours. Fully mature fruit, quite light for Beaucastel but delicate and delicious. Best drunk at around 15/16 celsius.

5/5/2024 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 93 points

Deep, dark garnet in color with no signs of aging. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of dark cherries, blackberries & blueberries with overtones of kirsch, garrigue & floral notes, Provençal herbs, earthy/dusty, spice notes, some sandalwood, licorice, leather, minerals, pepper & a hint of cedar. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of sweet cherries, tart cranberries & dark plums with herbs, exotic spices, anise, pepper, mint, minerals & oak/vanilla. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing & even at 18years of age, it should develop slightly further with additional aging.

5/2/2024 - ParisWine75 Likes this wine: 92 points

Ce vin gagne tellement au vieillissement. Le 2003 est particulièrement réussi avec aucun signe de surmaturité contrairement à d’autres vins de la région dans ce millésime. Il est très épanoui aujourd’hui. Pas sur qu’il faille l’attendre trop longtemps. Il pourrait perdre une partie de son éclat qui fait son charme actuel. J’ai dégusté plusieurs bouteilles ces 2-3 dernières années avec tjrs le même plaisir.

2021 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Red Rhone Blend more

5/4/2024 - La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 95 points

The 2021 iteration of Beaucastel's Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a deep ruby blend of 30% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, 10% Counoise and 5% Cinsault, with the remaining 10% comprised of permitted red and white varietals (Vaccarèse, Terret Noir, Muscardin, Clairette, Picpoul, Picardan, Bourboulenc and Roussanne). Intensely aromatic, it flaunts scents of dark bramble fruits, Bing cherries, Provençal herbs, tobacco, white pepper, bittersweet chocolate and shaved truffles. Medium-to-full-bodied, seamlessly alcoholic (14.5%), lightly oaked and with excellent freshness, it delivers a flavor payload that is congruent with the aromas, wrapped with plentiful silky-textured tannins. Dense on the mid-palate and lengthy on the back end, this is a beautiful version of Beaucastel that should age gracefully over the next many years. Drink now-2041.

Brown bag at Prince - Rhone (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): Served blind.
Riper more concentrated red berries; slightly jammy but not overripe, strawberries, clean but a little earthy underpin and garrigue. Fruit travels long with drying grippy, slightly coarse tannins in support, the latter well managed. Medium plus length.
Entry level CndP? Possibly village?

Clear medium golden beautiful concentration balanced with freshness and zest. Mature and rich floral core with yellow plum, peach and almond/nougat notes. Long finish, slight pepper unctuous, balanced and rewarding.
Great!

Coravin fun - Brunel Cailloux + ring in s (My place, Burwood): From Coravin. Honeysuckle, ripe stone fruit, wax, touch of nashi pear, honey, marzipan, quite a rich nose. Juicy, fleshy, buttery texture; insinuates itself into the nooks and crannies of the palate like a dollop of cream with stone fruit and honey, long, lush, hints of slight bitter almond on the finish isn't off putting. Lovely.

Decanted for one hour. Powerful, assertive aromas of black cherry, Coca-Cola, and warmed garden herbs. Tightly coiled in the mouth with a solid core of unsweetened cherry jam and emerging notes of soil and underbrush. Surprisingly primary for this stage in its evolution. Will hold my remaining bottles for 2-4 more years hoping for more secondary development. 91 points now but with considerable potential upside.

Enjoyed from a magnum. Decanted for an hour, continued to open up over the 2 hours we drank it. Alot of sediment.

Garrigue, cherry, leather, cigar humidor, cassis, hint of five spice & salinity, black olive, black tea.

Fully mature and this bottle was perhaps a bit tired. Still quite delicious and complex, but missing a note of lift and vibrance that would have helped it be really excellent.

A touch of tropical fruits coming through - but not with the brightness you'd typically find. This moved more roasted nuts, brioche - with a breadth of palate and roundness. Great length, still in balance, a nice wine.

Deep red, red edge. Some fine deposit as well as solid deposit on the bottle. Difficult to decant.
Wonderful, rich, complex aromas. Barnyard. Showed more Pinot-like aromas on opening but these dissipated to express the power, evolved richness and complexity of this wine. Mature aromas but in no way retiring.
Rich, developed palate. A mint-like lift on the nose and palate has emerged with time.
Wonderfully complex, mature, rich, long flavours, with a developed sweetness. Beautiful balance. Long, long flavours.
Did I mention that I am enjoying this? 😂
IMO, fully mature and will stay on this plateau for perhaps a decade. Wonderful.

Arômes de cerises et fraises mûres, d'épices...cannelle et sucre d'orge, de sous-bois, de poussière, de moisi, de galet ainsi que des notes de fleurs sauvages. Souple, fruité...fruits confits, texturé et fin, rond...longue finale sur les épices...notes de poivre. Un vin harmonieux à boire sans tarder.

4/28/2024 - PacoHigon Likes this wine: NR

30% Garnacha, 30% Monastrell, 20% Cinsault y 20% Syrah. Ya me van quedan menos vinos del siglo pasado. En la cava apareció este Beaucastel Oenotheque embotellado en 2014 (eso dice la etiqueta).
Granate de capa media/alta con el ribete bastante abierto. Nariz elegante, bien perfilada, con un atractivo bouquet, cueros finos, matices especiados, fruta licorosa, violetas ajadas, frutilla roja del bosque, monte bajo.... En boca el ataque es muy bueno, cuerpo medio, tanino intenso pero pulido u muy bien integrado, textura levemente terrosa, suaves amargos, estructura ligera, muy buena definición y notable longitud. Si en la fase visual se nota algo en el paso del tiempo ni en nariz ni en boca muestra el más mínimo síntoma de cansancio.

18 years and the structure is all still there. Mostly tertiary flavors, but still fresh. Fruit leather, jerky, black truffle, black raisin, rum, some pleasant funkiness, and soy sauce. M+ ripe sandy tannins. Full body, but fit with the high lively acid. Outstanding.

Some ullage. Cork wet but intact; smelled good. Attractive light garnet w orange rim. On opening, noticeable VA on a slightly musty bass note. With air, tomato leaf, orange rind, wet earth - all tertiary aromas around a core of leathery Brettanomyces. Rather light bodied for Ch de Pape (13.6% ABV) with fully resolved tannins. A bit metallic/tangy on the finish that I ascribe to Brett and makes it less pleasant than it would otherwise be. If you can tolerate the Brett, fun to try though long past prime.

Blind. James' 2nd wine of the event.....1 hour decant and 1-2 hour slow ox.

Medium garnet in the glass. No Syrah stink but that black olive, meaty Syrah nose is unmistakable. The palate displays perfect balance with smooth, smokey dark red/black fruit and lots of black olive. It's smokey and meaty, but not in an overly strong way. I don't think this one gets any better than it is right now. Fooled us a bit early on thinking it was a Wash St Syrah.....it's extremely good and ready to drink in prime time right now.

Either in a protracted reduction phase or simply punching above its (current) weight, this very pricey bottle left us unimpressed. Shy notes of cassis, blackberries, liquorice, garrigue pencilshave and earthy notes in the finish. To be revisited in some years.

See previous notes. Kirsch, Lavender, garrigue, and minerality. Medium acidity and tannins. Medium plus finish. Still a little tight. Good showing. Out of a 375 ml.
