Parker om: Vinsobres Vieilles Vignes Les Hauts de Julien

Like the les Cornuds bottling, the 2017 Vinsobres Les Hauts de Julien is a 50-50 blend of Grenache and Syrah. It's co-fermented, then divided into foudre and barrels for aging (half in each). With its toasted coconut and cocoa aromas, it comes across as a bit exotic, but it adds plenty of mixed berry fruit and hints of dried spices. There are only 5,000 bottles of this full-bodied, richly textured wine for the world, so fans will have to move fast to secure some once it's released. 94-96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Vinsobres Vieilles Vignes Les Hauts de Julien

Consistently one of the gems of the Southern Rhône, I always feel the 2017 Vinsobres Les Hauts de Julien has a slightly Northern Rhône-like style. Cassis, black cherries, violets, spring flowers, and menthol notes all emerge from this deep purple-colored beauty. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and opulent on the palate, it has ripe, polished tannin, a layered texture and gorgeous purity. 93-95/100

Min vinmager

Famille Perrin

Beaucastel har bestemt været primus inter pares i det sydlige Rhône i årtier og er en af de få vingårde, der stadig bruger alle 13 godkendte druesorter til den røde Chateauneuf.
