WS90-pts: This is rounded and creamy in feel, with pretty melon, yellow apple and salted butter notes. There's a light flash of almond on the finish. A tasty crowd-pleaser. By Wine Spectator, Mar 2019.
隆河紅酒名門代表 Famille Perrin Coudolet de Beaucastel Cotes du Rhone 2017 JS92-pts: Abundant, rich and ripe red fruit with lightly spiced pastry and quite brambly complexity. The palate has a super fleshy, bold and upfront-tannin shape. Fresh and easy. By James Suckling, Oct 2019.
WE92-pts: While full bodied and plump, this perfumed red offers bright, sunny layers of crisp red cherry and plum marked by lovely twists of tart cassis and raspberry. A bright, sunny wine, it finishes on fine, smooth tannins and hints of crushed earth and sage. Immediately approachable the wine should drink well through 2024. By Wine Enthusiast, May 2020.
WA90-92-pts: Still not yet bottled for my June visit (it was scheduled to be bottled at the end of the month), the final blend of the 2017 Cotes du Rhone Coudoulet de Beaucastel was showing plenty of garrigue and dried-spice notes layered over cherry fruit. Full-bodied, silky textured and long on the finish, it should drink well for a decade or more. By Wine Advocate, Aug 2019.
