"The 1993 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape (25% of the crop was eliminated from the final blend) is reminiscent of the 1985. The Perrins achieved exceptional ripeness in 1993. This opaque purple-colored wine exhibits a dazzling, seductive nose of black fruits, olives, coffee, and herbs. Full-bodied, sweet, and rich, with terrific purity, this [is a] large-scaled, complex, smoky, black fruit-scented and flavored wine . . ."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
