Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Château de Beaucastel, Famille Perrin 2023 - Magnum En Primeur - Case of 3 Magnums
Sampling this icon wine in the U.K, outside of its debut showing at the Château is a new one for me but the extra time in bottle, is time well spent. Well balanced and frankly devoid of any hard edges, the 2023 is very precise and pure in style. Exuding aromas of forest fruit, red berry and spicy garrigue, the mid-palate is fresh, with excellent ripe purity of black fruit and hints of charcuterie and pepper. Whilst, possessing the intrinsic pedigree and backbone to develop for years to come it will provide huge enjoyment with just a few years of cellaring. Music to my ears!
