Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2010 - Château de Beaucastel
98+/100 Parker
Tasting by Jeb Dunnuck: “Tight, dense and rustic, the 2010 Châteauneuf du Pape Hommage À Jacques Perrin was one of the less accessible wines in the lineup, but it certainly has incredible potential. Offering plenty of liquid minerality, crushed stone, blueberry, truffle and cassis, it's massive and concentrated on the palate, with well-built tannins, good acidity and a firm, concentrated feel that begs to be cellared. Hide it in the cellar for another decade.”
When to drink this wine : 2025 - 2060
- Exceptional vintage of the estate
- Main grape variety : Old vines of Mourvèdre, the ancestral grape variety of Châteauneuf du Pape rehabilitated by Jacques Perrin.
- Tasting: this is a wine of incredible concentration. Great aromatic complexity - black fruits, spices, leather... - its tannins are fine, noble and elegant. Very pure.
- Aging potential: A remarkable ageing potential due to a particular vision of Châteauneuf du Pape, with the greatest respect for the terroir from which it comes.
- A remarkable terroir, very old vines worked in the most natural way possible, according to the principles of biodynamics dear to Jacques Perrin.
