" I was stunned by the quality of the 2014 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin, and I can't think of another wine that achieves such depth, concentration, and richness in this vintage. Its inky color precedes sensational notes of roasted herbs, licorice, caramelized meats, and layers of black and blue fruit. Rich, full-bodied, dense, and smooth, bravo to the Perrin family for this incredible wine! The Wine Advocate, 97+ points/100

The Perrin family needs no introduction to Rhône wine lovers, given the resounding success of Château de Beaucastel . Their Hommage à Jacques Perrin cuvée, made from Mourvèdre grapes, is produced in small quantities and was created in 1989. It is one of the greatest wines of France , and its stature is well deserved.

Respectful viticultural practices help preserve biodiversity and grape quality, while respecting the natural balance of the terroir.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château de Beaucastel is a meticulous process. The hand-harvested grapes are destemmed and crushed before being vinified separately according to their varietal. Fermentation takes place in wooden vats, where the juice is regularly pumped over to extract color and tannins. Aging, which lasts approximately 12 to 18 months, occurs in oak barrels, allowing the wine to refine and develop its complexity. This care at each stage guarantees a rich, elegant wine that reflects the estate's identity.
