2015 Chateau De Beaucastel Chateauneuf Du Pape 12 x 37.5cl / 14.5%

This lot contains 12 x 37.5cl half bottles of 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape from Château de Beaucastel. Unusually, Beaucastel grow and vinify all 13 grape varieties permitted under appellation law.

'The 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape checks in as a blend of 30% each of Mourvèdre and Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Counoise and the rest a mix of permitted varieties, and they’re more and more keeping the stems with Syrah component. This is a beauty that offers more depth and richness than just about every other wine in the vintage. Blackberry, black raspberries, garrigue, spice and hints of saddle leather all flow to a full-bodied, rich, layered 2015 that has a stacked, concentrated mid-palate, ripe, sweet tannin and an undeniable opulence that’s missing from too many 2015s. Marc Perrin compared this cuvée to 2001, and I can’t disagree with him. Drink this blockbuster beauty anytime over the coming two decades. The Perrin family continues to knock it out of the park and have produced some of the wines of the vintage in 2015. 96+ points.' Jeb Dunnuck, 2017
