Order a bottle of Château de Beaucastel White 2023
Chateauneuf du pape - Famille Perrin
94/100 – James Suckling
A harmonious, dense, and silky white blend composed of Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, Picardan, Bourboulenc, and Clairette. The nose reveals aromas of candied lemon, verbena, beeswax, wild herbs, and dried spices. On the palate, the wine has a medium body and moderate acidity. Baked lemon and herbal notes bring a nice energy to the mid-palate. The texture is rich, almost oily, with a vibrant and lingering finish.
Enjoy now or cellar for a few years.
