Lot 478 Details
CHÂTEAU DE BEAUCASTEL CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE 2015 (5)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
u. 5 x 1 cm. 5 x scraped & marked labels. 1 x raised cork.

Bottled in late July, the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape is an amazing effort, especially when one considers the production volume. Loaded with black cherry fruit and cola-like spice, this full-bodied, richly textured wine never seems heavy or warm, while exotic Indian spice notes linger on the finish. It should drink well for at least 20 years. October 2017 WA 96

CLOS DES PAPES CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE 2015 (2)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
1 x scraped label. 2 x marked labels.

Bottled in May, the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape is a floral, elegant, unbelievably complex wine. Roses and violets, cherries and stone fruit, cinnamon and allspice and more are carried across the full-bodied yet almost weightless palate, finishing in a swirl of silky tannins and lingering spice. Drink it over the next two decades. October 2017 Drink: 2017-2034 WS 98 WA 97
