Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022

Tasting Notes

A textured, layered, precise red, showcasing aromas of cherries, raspberries, warm herbs, bay leaves and baking spices. It's medium- to full-bodied with silty, beautifully melted tannins. So integrated. Lively and focused, with plenty of energy and verve complementing the ripe red fruit and dried herbs. Intense stream of spices in the long, flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Try after 2027. [A wine to follow into the early 2040s+.] (jamessuckling.com,Sept. 26, 2024)
