Description

Great Vintage. *****
Fairly deep, very distinctive nose and flavour. Getting its second wind. ***(*) Michael Broadbent

98/100 Robert Parker,Hedonists Gazette,June 2009

For every quirky outsider of a wine, there is a classical, downright Baroque bottle that presents itself simply, like an antique desk, yet is so utterly beautiful in its minimal presentation that it trumps its younger counterparts every time. And that wine is the 1998 Beaucastel. There are few words that come to mind when one drinks this wine. It speaks for itself impeccably.
Nobly Rotten, 98/100, 2012-01-11

Scented and fresh, still showing some red fruit and a touch of vanilla. Elegant and silky. Lingers with flavours of thyme and a hint of bitter chocolate. 'A Grenache vintage', according to Marc Perrin.
Jancis Robison. 18/20, 2012-10-17

The atypically Grenache-dominated 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape is fully mature and gives up tons of kirsch, garrigue, licorice and a touch of gaminess in its full-bodied, layered and ripe personality. More rounded and sexy than most vintages, it has no hard edges, plenty of mid-palate depth and a great finish. I see no reason to delay gratification, but it will certainly hold for 5-10 years.
Jeb Dennuck, Wine Advocate. 93/100, 2015-08-01

'For me it’s still very, very young. I think this wine still has a huge, huge potential.'
