Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1999
The prodigious 1999 Beaucastel boasts aromas of blackberry fruit intermixed with cassis, licorice, roasted meats, leather, and truffles. While it does not possess much fat or precociousness, it displays definition and elegance. This is a full-bodied, concentrated, classic Beaucastel. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025. Robert Parker

Muted plum, blackberry, and an abundance of black olives. Nice herbal note on palate and little spice. Should bang with grilled lamb

Tar, raisin, soaked fig, cherry pit, wilted violet, hung meat, boudin noir, leather, cinnamon, cocoa powder, honey, truffle, scorched earth, roasted herbs, camphor, black tea. Wears the vintage well. More moderate frame (relatively speaking) showing some consistent grip throughout, surprised by the acid support this has, makes for a plausible argument about whether or not to continue aging. So tertiary and savory right now.

actually was the white VV. a bit oxidized but still quite a bit going in with it. paired with yuzu cake and the acid in that worked.
