Lot 1025 Details
2000 Chateau de Beaucastel (1); 2004 Chateau de Beaucastel (1)
Clean and fresh, bursting with fruit and spices. Full-bodied, it delivers some game, truffle, vanilla notes. Needs time. Drink now through 2020. Wine Spectator 90/100;
Thoroughly primal, with a torrent of raspberry and boysenberry fruit rushing forth. Only shows hints of its full range, with licorice, incense, graphite and mocha flavors fluttering in the background. Has an iron-clad structure, with a long finish. Best from 2009 through 2025. Wine Spectator 96/100;
Rhone, France 2 Magnums (1500 ml)
