Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc Vintage:2010 an unctuous texture

an unctuous texture

I really like the amount of dry extract here as it relegates the still firm tannins to the background and this should age effortlessly for years to come

Is this the best vintage since 1990 or perhaps 1978

While there is still a moderate amount of unresolved tannins remaining

Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc Vintage:2010 an unctuous textureThe 2005 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape blanc, a blend of 80% Roussanne and 20% white Grenache fermented 80% in tank and 20% in barrel, has exuberant notes of honeysuckle, rose water, and hazelnuts. It is medium to full bodied, rich, and certainly one of the finest of the white Chateauneuf du Papes.
