94 Beaucastel

1994 Chateau de Beaucastel;
Ruby with garnet rim, elegant if maybe a bit thin on the nose, cool fruit, hints of liquorice and spices, some coffee, red berries and darker fruits, even leather behind. Fresh acidity, a near perfect balance, ripe tannins, lacks in complexity, good length, some green, oreganoish touch, and even some floral notes. 82
