Try to find this 1981 Beaucastel. You will never forget the experience. Even better than the brilliant 1978. Beaucastel in Excelsis

En Magnum. My last bottle of one of my first CdP loves, 1981 Beaucastel. A little gamer, definitely some brett, but just amazing complexity of dark fruits and earthy notes, super balance and still very lively acidity, very long finish, a great CdP (though acknowledging to those who despise ANY brett that they may like it less)!!

This 35 years old Chateauneuf du Pape ROCKS! A nose to die for, still fullbodied and a long aftertaste. The best vintage for Beaucastel
