Description
Robert Parker: Interestingly enough, even though many of the 2010
Perrin et Fils selections from the southern Rhone were scheduled to
be bottled right after my visit, the 2010 Beaucastel had already
been put in bottle. This is a gorgeous wine, a classic blend of 30%
Grenache, 30% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah, 10% Counoise and the balance
the other permitted varietals in the appellation. Deep purple, with
loads of bouquet garni, beef blood, blackberry, kirsch, smoke and
truffle, this wine is full-bodied, rich and showing even better
than it did last year. I still think it needs 3-5 years of
cellaring, and it should last for 25-30 years, as most of the top
vintages of Beaucastel do.
