  • Intense and deep. Tiny bit of oxidative funk in the end - perhaps a bottle issue. Long.

  • (Verkostet aus der Normalflasche (75cl) im Rahmen der C9dP Probe von Peter Buser) Die Nase zeigt Heu, trockene Wiese, Stroh, Leder, Waldboden, Pilze, Trockenblumen, unglaublich expressiv und gleichzeitig subtil und tiefgründig, ein Gedicht, ein Schnüffelwein. Im Gaumen straff, gradlinig und enorm frisch, das hat Rasse, Eleganz, Dichte und doch eine ausgezeichnete Finesse, hier ist alles an seinem Platz, ein Tänzerwein, finessenreich, langanhaltend, frisch, feinwürzig und sehr lang. Eine Grazie. Grosses Kino. 98 vvPunkte

  • A spectacular bottle.Gorgeous,complex nose displaying a compelling mix of rich ripe dark berries,plums,smoked meats,garrigue,spices,hints of tar and iron .... Big,rich,creamy and luscious,there is such a wonderful purity of fruit in this wine.The palate is very powerful and refined,complex and harmonious,with a miraculous sense of lightness despite its insane concentration.So great,this is mind-boggling.

  • layers of fruit give this wine an opulence, and the richness is well balanced with acidity to keep a lighter frame on it …it was hard to put the glass down. I would like a little more exotic character like licorice and spice that can come from aged grenache….and was more apparent in some CDPs we had alongside this

  • i have to agree with jeff Leve in that this is the best Châteauneuf-du-Pape i have ever had. big, strong and vibrant from the first taste. we decanted for 3-4 hours and it was so big and rich without being overly sweet. Tremendously dense, yet perfectly balanced. although this is not cheap, compared to similar experiences in other regions, its a bargain

    (Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin) Very dark red violet color; brett, tobacco and garrigue nose; tart, dense black fruit, tart plum, brett and leather palate, basically disappointing and possibly at least slightly flawed; medium-plus finish

    (Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin) A little barnyard on the nose; very concentrated, boysenberry, meaty, seductive palate; long finish (decanted 3 hours before serving)
