Château de Beaucastel has long been regarded as one of the greatest wineries in France, notorious for its elegance, poise and ageing potential. Beaucastel has an exceptional terroir at the Northern point of Châteauneuf du Pape, exposed to the cooling Mistral wind which provides such balance. All thirteen grape varieties of the Chateauneuf have been organically grown since the sixties; without a doubt, Beaucastel is a name we are proud to highlight and an organic wine icon that many have learnt from.
The 2002 vintage is showing golden yellow in colour. There are concentrated and focused aromas of stone fruit, roasted almonds, candied nuts, honey and a touch of vanilla and caramel. The moreish, rich and mouth-coating texture is well-balanced with its mineral backbone and scented notes. With sometime to air and a few swirls, the layers of flavour will be beautifully revealed. A classic well-aged white wine from the Southern Rhone region!
