Hommage 2019 à Jacques Perrin Château de Beaucastel

Château de Beaucastel Hommage à Jacques Perrin

Wine Spectator
This is really packed, with a stunning core of pure violet, raspberry and plum pâte de fruit flavors that glide through seductively, belying the power that's in reserve, thanks to a well of singed alder and mesquite, worn leather and warm stone notes. The finish cuts a broad and deep swath, with the fruit showing serious staying power and superior definition. Mourvèdre, Grenache, Counoise and Syrah. Best from 2025 through 2045. From France

Robert Parker
Marvelously complex, deeply fruited and massively concentrated yet wonderfully drinkable, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin challenges the number of superlatives that can be thrown at it. Scents of violets, tree bark, truffle, purple raspberries and blackberries all appear on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is rich, dense and velvety, and the finish shows enormous richness and length. Breathtaking stuff.

Falstaff
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Rauchig-würzig, schwarze Beerenfrucht, zart nach Lakritze, feine Edelholzwürze, dunkle Mineralität. Komplex, engmaschig, straff, etwas Kaffee, feine tragende Tannine, schokoladiger Abgang, große Länge, Nougat im Nachhall, sicheres Reifepotenzial, noch etwas zurückhaltend, dennoch bereits etwas früher antrinkbar.
