" Another prodigious vintage of this wine! How many wines in the world can be both so immense and yet devoid of any sense of heaviness? The palate offers a profusion of layered spices but also a heart of raspberries; rich tannins without any real astringency; and a long finish, without any perceptible heat. Impressive! " The Wine Advocate, 98 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.

The Château de Beaucastel vineyard is a true haven of biodiversity. The vines, cultivated biodynamically, benefit from an ideal Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild winters. The soils, rich in limestone and rolled pebbles, promote excellent drainage and optimal grape ripening. This diversity of terroirs allows each grape variety to fully express its potential, resulting in wines of unparalleled richness.

Owner and history

The Perrin family, owners of Château de Beaucastel, are a leading name in the wine world. Passed down through generations, their passion for winemaking is reflected in every bottle. Today, the Perrin brothers are committed to preserving the family heritage while innovating to meet contemporary challenges. Their vision focuses on sustainability and respect for the environment, ensuring wines that tell the story of their terroir.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château de Beaucastel is a meticulous art. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted. Fermentation takes place in wooden vats, allowing for a gentle extraction of tannins. Aging occurs in oak barrels, where the wine develops its complexity and character. This process, combined with meticulous attention to detail at each stage, guarantees wines of exceptional precision, true to the estate's identity.
