Description
 
Labeled by Parker as one of the World’s Greatest Wine Estates. Since 1909, the Perrins have been making wonders in the then little-known Southern Rhone Valley. Over the past 90 years or so, the rise in status for the Perrins lies in the consistency of their wines, their relentless pursuit of excellence and the incredible value they offer. Chateau de Beaucastel – Amongst the best in the Rhone Valley. This is the top range of the Perrins family collection with Hommage CDP as one of the world’s most sought-after wines.

The two limited cuvees of Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin are spectacular in both 1994 and 1995, but each will require 10-15 years of cellaring. Less than 300 cases were made in each vintage. The textbook blend of 70% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 10% Grenache, and 5% Counoise was utilized in 1989, 1990, and 1994, but in 1995, the Mourvedre component was reduced, with the amount of Counoise and Syrah increased significantly. The 1994 is an explosively rich, super-concentrated wine that represents the essence of the Beaucastel style. It boasts an opaque purple color, followed by a huge nose of black fruits, smoke, Provencal herbs, saddle leather, coffee, licorice, and Asian spices. An excruciating tannin level is balanced by the wine's massive extract, high quantity of glycerin, and sweet alcohol. This Chateauneuf du Pape will last 40+ years, but it will not be close to maturity until 2008-2010.Wine Advocate 96
