Seventeen percent was fermented in large
Time has been kind to this wine
the 2012 really shines
flinty touches to the nose - it’s still extremely young - with green and red apple notes and some clear slate and wet stone minerality
Great care was required to keep the leaves and the clusters healthy
Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions Seventeen percent was fermented inTime has been kind to this wine, as it has really come on strong with bottle age. Crisp, classic and fresh, with a kirsch, spice and herbed, tannic profile. Classic, with loads of bright, clean red fruits, age it a few more years for additional nuance, or pop a cork if you prefer more of a classic, bite.
