Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2010 is a full-bodied red wine from the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation of the southern Rhône Valley. Château de Beaucastel is one of the oldest and finest estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. 1989 saw the debut release of the flagship wine, Hommage à Jacques Perrin, which is only made in the best years and has production of around 350 cases on average. On the 2010. "I don`t know what more a wine could offer. Inky blue/purple, with an extraordinary nose of smoked duck, grilled steaks, Provencal herbs, blackberries, blueberries, kirsch, liquorice and truffle, enormously massive, concentrated, full-bodied and built for 30-50 years of cellaring, this wine, which is dominated by its Mourvèdre component, is a tour de force, a spectacular, world-class wine. It is going to require some patience, though, and seems to need 4-5 years of cellaring. It should again be almost ageless in its potential." 100 points, Wine Advocate, 2012
