Give it 3-5 more years in bottle and drink it over the next twenty-five

dishing out lovely ripe and intense blackberry

There is once again an appealing sense of energy to the lighter weight flavors that deliver solid punch and persistence on the balanced finish

I very much like the overall sense of harmony and depth and as good as the regular cuvée is there is just another dimension present here

Like the Bâtard

Beaucastel, Chateauneuf du Pape Roussanne Vv other_regions Give it 3-5 more yearsButtery, fleshy, and a very solid backup of apricot and peach melba. Lengthy and succulent and substantial. Such tremendous concentration on the finish, but without being too forceful and headbanging. Delightful to drink now, but could age for decades, on previous form. (RH)
