Media Reviews

Joe Czerwinski

Beaucastel`s 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape is shaping up as a blend of 30% each Grenache and Mourvedre, with 10% each Counoise and Syrah, plus 20% other permitted varieties, including a healthy proportion of white grapes. Complex and red-fruited, with hints of flowers and garrigue, it`s expansive and richly textured on the palate, finishing long and silky. Drink 2023-2037. 95-97 points

Alistair Cooper MW

Piercing fresh fruit, both red and blue fruits. Juicy and has delineated and fine chalky tannins. Good fruit intensity and has crushed red fruits, sweet spice and well-judged acidity. Clean and layered long finish. 17.5 points
