1999 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape
ADVANCED CHARACTER
I must have tasted many bottles of this wine. Initially I thought some of the bottles I tasted was premox (advance maturity in white burgundy term). But as I tasted more, it became norm that it just possessed an advanced and forward character. The color was almost diluted coffee!
Tons of wet tobacco leaves on the nose and palate, the forwardness has turned the wine into some kind of molasses. Rich oily, the finishing was decent. Probably paired well with some very rich foods.
