Chateau de Beaucastel Chateaneuf-du-Pape 2023
93 points Vinous Media
The 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape shows well, unwinding with intense blackberry, black cherry and licorice aromatics. Silky and elegant, it hits the full-bodied palate with energy and drive, coming to a close with freshness and focus on the rounded finish. This classy red Châteauneuf can be approached as of 2026.

As usual, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape from Château de Beaucastel was matured in foudres. Wafting from the glass with aromas of pepper, garrigue, dark berries and flowers, it’s medium- to full-bodied, round and sappy, with a layered core of fruit and a dense, precise mid-palate framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a firmer, gently spicy finish.
