2015 CHATEAU DE BEAUCASTEL CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE GRAND CUVEE HOMMAGE A JACQUES PERRIN

(98 Point) As this was bottled only a week before I tasted it, I suspect this rating will prove to be conservative once a few months have passed. The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin is another prodigious version of this wine. How many wines in this world can be so huge yet so lacking the feeling of weight? There's plenty of layered spice but also a core of raspberries; rich tannins, yet no real astringency; and a long finish without any apparent heat. Wow! Wine Advocate
