As always, the 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes comes from a three-hectare parcel planted in 1909. It's richer, creamier and longer than Beaucastel's regular white Châteauneuf-du-Pape but also fresher and brinier. It looks even more impressive than the stunning 2016.
Sweet spice, full body, thick palate and toasted nuts. At the moment, it is less aromatically complex than their regular (and very good) 2017 Châteauneuf, but with more intensity and power, especially on the long, glutinous finish. (RH)
