Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 1998 magnum


The Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 1998 is a Rhône Valley red wine produced by Château de Beaucastel, owned by Jean-Pierre and François Perrin. Its blend comprises 30% Mourvèdre, 30% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Counoise, 5% Cinsault, and 15% other grape varieties. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinified separately: in truncated conical wooden vats for the Syrah and Mourvèdre, and in concrete or enamelled stoneware vats for the Grenache; the wine is then aged for one year in oak foudres. The Wine Advocate awards it 93/100, Jancis Robinson 18/20, and Wine Spectator 95/100; the published drinking windows extend up to 2027 for Wine Spectator and from 2017 to 2035 for Jancis Robinson. Critics describe a ripe and complex wine combining red fruit, herbs, spices, liquorice, and a still-fresh structure with softened tannins.

Notes & cotations

The Wine Advocate 93/100

The atypically Grenache-dominated 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape is fully mature and gives up tons of kirsch, garrigue, licorice and a touch of gaminess in its full-bodied, layered and ripe personality. More rounded and sexy than most vintages, it has no hard edges, plenty of mid-palate depth and a great finish. I see no reason to delay gratification, but it will certainly hold for 5-10 years.

Very youthful, with a juicy blast of red plum and fig fruit flavors on a racy frame, this also has plenty of spice, tar, plum cake and mineral in reserve, as the finish shows more structure and slowly darkens with time in the glass. Only just starting to hit its stride.--1998 Châteauneuf-du-Pape retrospective. Drink now through 2027. 15,000 cases made. Published on September 30, 2007

Full bottle all of 1,606 g. Sediment. Transparent shaded ruby. Meaty, sweet nose with good structure and a lot of pleasure. It’s looking good! Good freshness as well as a mass of complex fruit, herbs and spice – almost cinnamon! Light tannins still in evidence. The bottle was finished!
