Description

Chateau Beaucastel’i veinimõisa koosseisu kuulub 7 hektarit valgete viinamarjasortidega viinapuuaedu. Viinapuuaedade pinnase moodustavad ladestunud settekivimid ja suured ümarad kivid iidsel merepõhjal. Vein valmistatakse 80% Roussanne, 15% Grenache Blanc ja 5% ulatuses Picardan, Clairette ja Bourboulenc viinamarjadest. Viinamarjad koristatakse ja sorteeritakse käsitsi ja asetatakse väikestesse kastidesse. Viinamarjad purustatakse pneumaatilise pressiga, seejärel lastakse veinil settida, et eralduksid veinis olevad tahked osakased. Käärimisprotsess leiab aset 70% ulatuses roostevaba terasest mahutites ja 30% ulatuses väikestes tammevaatides, pärast käärimise lõppemist küpseb vein 8 kuud 70% ulatuses roostevaba terasest mahutites ja 30% ulatuses väikestes tammevaatides, seejärel vein villitakse pudelitesse.

Värvuselt kahvatu kuldkollane, aroom meenutab akaatsiaõit, mett ja tsitrusvilju. Maitsetekstuur on väga pehme ja küps, eristuvad röstitud sai ja mesi. Serveerida 10 – 12 kraadi juures kvaliteetsest kalast roogadega, linnulihaga ja mereandidega.

“The 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc brings another level of precision and focus. Honeyed quince, white flowers, honeysuckle, chalky minerality, and toasted spice notes all define the aromatics, and it’s medium to full-bodied, with beautiful mid-palate depth and a remarkable sense of freshness while staying rich and textured.” Jeb Dunnuck 95 points

“Fantastic nose of cooked apricots, a wide spectrum of candied fruit and toasted nuts. Full-bodied, concentrated and creamy, with a very caressing texture on the mid palate and a very long finish that has great restrained power. From organically grown grapes.” James Suckling 95 points

“The 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc has the potential to outperform the preceding four vintages. This 2022 white stuns with hauntingly fragrant aromas of spring blossom, lime and lemon flesh, pear, white peach, quince and a tropical splash of melon. Coming in at 14% alcohol, it carries a terrific freshness, delivering juicy ripe fruits along with outstanding flavor definition. The sapid finish continues for well over a minute.” Antonio Galloni Vinous 93-95 points

“An aromatic vintage at this stage, with honeyed pear and honeysuckle characters. Full, round and generous, with plenty of glycerol, all cut through by a strong beam of acidity. Alcohol is just gently warming. Certainly a rich vintage, all about power, weight and ripeness.” Decanter Magazine 94 points
