Lot 361 Details
CHÂTEAU DE BEAUCASTEL CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE 2006 (OWC)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
u. 4 cm. soiled label

As I stated last year, there is no Hommage a Jacques Perrin in 2006, but Beaucastel’s 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape is performing even better from bottle than it did last year. Its dense plum/ruby/purple color is followed by a big, sweet perfume of black truffles, camphor, earth, incense, new saddle leather, and loads of peppery, blackberry, and herb-infused, meaty, black cherry fruit. Deep, full-bodied, and dense, with sweet tannin, this explosively rich Chateauneuf is a stronger effort than the 2005, 2004, or 2003. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2028. October 2008 WA 95

1 3 ltr.    per lot $300 - $500

Realised: $720
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
