Chteau De Beaucastel
Chteau de Beaucastel has long been regarded as one of the greatest wines in France. It is noted for its elegance, balance and ageing potential. Beaucastel has an exceptional terroir with rolled pebbles on the surface, and sand, clay and limestone deeper down. The estate covers 110 hectares at the northern limit of Chteauneuf du Pape, exposed to the Mistral wind. All thirteen varieties of the appellation have been organically grown since the 1960s, encouraging the vine roots to grow exceptionally deep. Each variety is harvested separately and manually. Vinification takes place in oak fermenters for the reductive varieties (Mourvdre, Syrah) and in traditional enameled concrete tanks for the oxidative grapes (all the others). Once the malolactic fermentation is finished, the Famille Perrin blends the different varieties. The blend is then aged in oak Foudres for a year before being bottled.
