96/100 Parker

Cellaring: 2007 - 2011

By Robert M. Parker, Jr. in 2007: "The 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes Blanc de Beaucastel is an exceptional wine in this vintage, 100% Roussanne from very old vines, 50% of which were kept in tank and 50% fermented in barrel, with blending done before bottling. The wine has fabulous intensity, a big sweet nose of exotic fruit, fig, marmalade and honeysuckle, huge body, decent acidity and a smooth mouthfeel. It's a wonderful wine to drink for 3-4 years or take the risk that it will bounce back in 10-12 years, which it most often does."
