Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions flinty touches to the nose

flinty touches to the nose - it’s still extremely young - with green and red apple notes and some clear slate and wet stone minerality

Great care was required to keep the leaves and the clusters healthy

Seventeen percent was fermented in large

the 2012 really shines

Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions flinty touches to the noseTime has been kind to this wine, as it has really come on strong with bottle age. Crisp, classic and fresh, with a kirsch, spice and herbed, tannic profile. Classic, with loads of bright, clean red fruits, age it a few more years for additional nuance, or pop a cork if you prefer more of a classic, bite.
