Description

1998 was a superb vintage for Beaucastel and this wine is currently drinking very well, though has the substance to last for the long haul too. Rich, smoky, figgy and powerful but very elegant too.

Parker said:

"The 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape is the greatest effort produced since Beaucastel's 1989 and 1990. it reveals more accessibility, no doubt because the final blend included more Grenache than normal. Its dense purple color is followed by sweet aromas of blackberries, licorice, new saddle leather, and earth. There is superb concentration, full body, low acidity, and high tannin, but it is surprisingly drinkable for such a young Beaucastel. Ideally, it needs another 3-4 years of cellaring, and should keep for 25-30 years. This great Beaucastel should rival the superb Chateauneufs produced in 1990, 1989, and 1981." 96pts
