BEAUCASTEL

This high-end, family-owned winery is one of the oldest and finest producers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The organically farmed Château Beaucastel wines possess the ability to age fabulously, and present with a distinctive character that is all their own (while renowned as one of the best, their blend is definitely atypical).

Along with Mont-Redon and Domaine de Nalys, Beaucastel is one of only three producers within the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation to have all thirteen of the permitted grape varieties planted, and their individual red blend carries a greater than usual proportion of Mourvèdre.

The property is today in the hands of brothers Jean-Pierre and François Perrin, who learnt their craft from their late father Jacques, and perpetuate his exacting standards as they engage in their own stylistic enhancements.
