Château de Beaucastel - Roussane - Vielles Vigne

Château de Beaucastel is one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape's most serious estates, and this Vieilles Vignes bottling is their most ambitious white: a single-variety Roussanne drawn from old vines on the estate. At 14.5% ABV, it carries genuine weight and concentration.

Roussanne from old vines builds texture over time, expect lanolin, beeswax, white flowers and stone fruit, with a waxy, full-bodied palate and a long, savoury finish. Serve it with roast poultry, pork with cream sauces, oily fish such as turbot or sea bass, aged cheeses, or a well-considered charcuterie board.
