2022 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes

The 2022 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes is a remarkably rare and luxurious white Rhône wine, drawn from old-vine Roussanne at one of the region’s most revered estates. Known for its depth, texture, and ability to age beautifully, it captures both the power and finesse that have made Beaucastel a benchmark name in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it is typically pale gold with bright reflections, hinting at both richness and freshness. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of white flowers, ripe stone fruit, citrus peel, beeswax, herbs, and a subtle honeyed note that develops with time in the glass. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, balancing creamy texture with vibrant acidity. Flavors of peach, apricot, quince, almond, and delicate spice unfold in a long, nuanced finish. This is a white wine with serious aging potential, often rewarding cellaring with added complexity and a more savory, truffle-like dimension.

Production
Château de Beaucastel’s vineyards sit on the classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape terroir of rolled stones, gravel, clay, and limestone, which helps the vines retain heat while preserving freshness in the wine. The old Roussanne vines are carefully harvested, and the fruit is vinified with precision to protect aromatics and structure, resulting in a wine of both intensity and elegance.

Food & Serving
Serve this wine lightly chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to allow its aromatic complexity and texture to show at their best. It pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, roast chicken, creamy risotto, fine white fish, and dishes with mushrooms or truffle. Decanting is recommended, especially in its youth, to let the wine open fully.

Producer
Château de Beaucastel is one of the most historic and highly respected estates in the Rhône Valley, with a long-standing reputation for quality and consistency. The Perrin family has helped shape its identity as a leading producer in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and Beaucastel is especially celebrated for wines of remarkable balance, longevity, and regional authenticity.
