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 dark-fruited, plummy and cola-scented 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is a rich, full-bodied effort reminiscent of the 2007 or 2009. Dense, powerful and savory, it may drink well for a short time on release, but expect it to close up shortly, only to reemerge in several years. There's ample concentration and sufficient tannins for the long haul, with a long, dusty finish and hints of licorice that bode well for the future.Wine Advocate 95
This is pretty gorgeous, with a remarkably pure display of cassis, cherry puree and plum reduction flavors laced ever so gently with threads of leather, alder and dried garrigue. The sleek iron spine is buried deeply on the finish, and there’s a lingering hint of warm stone as the fruit echoes through. Built to last. Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Terret, Muscardin, Clairette, Picpoul, Bourboulenc, Picardan and Roussanne. Best from 2024 through 2040. 7,000 cases made. Wine Spectator 96, #8 Top 100 of 2022
