Chateau Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin 1999 Southern Rhone "The recently released 1999 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin is closed and less expressive than the 2000, and perhaps more elegant and less weighty. Nevertheless, it is an enormously endowed effort revealing notes of licorice, blackberry and cherry fruit, melted asphalt, tapenade, truffles, and smoke. Chewy, with more minerality than most vintages of this wine possess, it requires a minimum of 6-8 years of cellaring. It should last 35-40 years." R. Parker, 96 pts. 02/03 6 bottles (owc)
