CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE HOMMAGE À JACQUES PERRIN 2018 – CHÂTEAU DE BEAUCASTEL

A true icon of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2018 is a remarkable wine of character, produced in very limited quantities by the prestigious Perrin family. This exceptional cuvée pays tribute to Jacques Perrin, a visionary whose influence profoundly shaped the history of the estate and who championed a respectful approach to nature and terroir long before it became widespread.

Led by Mourvèdre, the emblematic grape variety of this cuvée, this wine reveals a remarkable personality, combining power with rare elegance and precision. The intense, captivating nose unveils sumptuous aromas of liquorice, violet and ripe red berries, complemented by spicy notes and subtle hints of Mediterranean garrigue.

On the palate, the wine displays remarkable depth and complexity. Flavours of red fruit, delicate spices and hints of thyme intertwine harmoniously. Exceptionally refined tannins provide structure without ever weighing the wine down, while remarkable freshness balances its concentration. The long, sophisticated finish prolongs this harmonious interplay of power, finesse and aromatic depth.

From the magnificent 2018 vintage, this Hommage à Jacques Perrin embodies the full greatness of Beaucastel’s terroir. A rare wine, destined for lovers of fine age-worthy wines and collectors alike, it has the potential to evolve gracefully in the cellar for many years to come.

An exceptional Châteauneuf-du-Pape: majestic, complex and profoundly elegant.

Château de Beaucastel – Perrin Family

Located in the northern part of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, in the southern Rhône Valley, Château de Beaucastel is one of the most iconic estates in French winemaking. Acquired by the Perrin family in 1909, the estate has built its reputation on a demanding and uncompromising approach to wine, founded on respect for the terroir, the pursuit of balance and the preservation of the grapes’ natural expression.

The vineyards benefit from an exceptional terroir, characterised by rounded pebbles on the surface, with clay, sand and limestone deeper in the soil. These soils, combined with the Mediterranean climate and the Mistral wind, contribute to the complexity and distinctive character of the wines. The estate cultivates all thirteen grape varieties permitted under the appellation and has practised organic viticulture for several decades.

Created in 1989, the Hommage à Jacques Perrin cuvée represents the rarest and most personal expression of this philosophy. Produced only in outstanding vintages that favour the ripening of late-maturing grape varieties, it places Mourvèdre centre stage and stands out for its depth, refined tannins and remarkable ageing potential.

More than just a great Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this cuvée is a tribute to a vision of winemaking in which nature, patience and excellence come together.
