The 2004 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape blanc is 80% Roussanne and 20% Grenache blanc, fermented in 80% tank and 20% barrel. It possesses dramatic notes of honeysuckle and apricot jam, beautiful full body, an expansive texture, good underlying acidity (a hallmark of this vintage), and a long, persistent finish. It should certainly drink well for 4-6 years.
92 Points - The Wine Advocate, Issue 163
Rich and creamy, with an array of floral, tropical fruit and mineral notes that race through a long, stony finish. Drink now through 2009. 350 cases imported.
