2018 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape

"You can taste and feel the intensity from the low yields here. At its core you find layers of earth, garrigue and peppery kirsch, black raspberry, cherry and spicy red plums. Richly textured with soft, silky tannins and a finish that resonates with spice box, kirsch, dark red berries and olives, this is going to offer great drinking early, yet should last for at least 2 decades." - 96/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
