Tasting Notes

“1997 Beaucastel Rouge. The deep ruby colour is accompanied by forward, attractive aromatics consisting of black raspberries, cherries, liquorice, floral and herb scents. The wine is fruit-driven, with less structure than usual, but luscious cassis, liquorice and blackberries inundate the palate with no hard edges. Seductive, supple-textured… this wine should drink well young and last for 15 or more years.
