Description

The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc Vieilles Vignes (100% Roussanne) could be called the "Montrachet of southern France". A wine of great intensity, it boasts thrilling aromas of orange marmalade, nectarine liqueur, honeysuckle, peaches, and apricots. Stunningly rich with full body, terrific acidity, and a finish that lasts 45+ seconds, this is an amazing achievement. It should drink well for 7-8 years, shut down or become oxidized, then, hopefully, re-emerge at around age 12-15, and drink in a completely different fashion for several decades thereafter.
Score: 97 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (185), October 2009

Tasted by CesarRiviere on 7/7/2012 & rated 95 points: A gold/wheat dress. The nose, full of roussanne, was insanely delicate. The mouth echoed it by displaying notes of fruits -i.e. mango, peach and apricot. A trend in this cuvée, the final was most interesting since its length and delicatessen were unequivocally unique. The whole experience was as delicate and velvety as a white peach's skin.
Very enjoyable:

Tasted by Lord Rayas on 1/10/2012 & rated 95 points: : decanted for half an hour. not enough. only started to show its true colours after at least an hour. glorious aroma of beeswax, honeysuckle and exotic flowers. beautiful oily texture. much prefer drinking these wines young than in their oxidised stage.

Tasted by iWineReport on 12/29/2011 & rated 98 points: December, 2011 - The 2007 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Vieilles Vignes is truly a mind-blowing wine. It shows a beautiful deep golden color. This is such a unique wine, when you first take in the aromas it displays almost dessert like characteristics, with loads of honey, orange marmalade, black tea, floral, and some smoky notes as well. On the palate this is full-bodied, structured, dense and complex with a beautiful rich creamy texture. The exceptional depth, concentration and balance along with a ultra-long finish make this wine an instant classic. You can drink this outstanding wine now, but it will also develop beautifully in the cellar over the next 20 years. 100% Roussanne. (Drink 2011 - 2027)
Tasted by Psycho_mantis on 5/15/2011 & rated 97 points: Had this with my parents to celibrate my birthday. Pale, very clear lemon-colour. The smell is huge with bags of flavours; yellow apple, pineapple, flowers, elderflower and resin. On the palate it is incredibly soft, pure taste, fruity, enormously concentrated with lots of pineapple. Reminds me a lot of wines from Sauternes. This was quite expensive for me, but this had fruit and aromas beyond any other wine I have ever drunk before. The wine has personality, it demands that you take time getting to know it. My parents and I were overwhelmed. I regret that I didn't buy more of this. A memory of greatness, love at first sight.
