A generous, plump red offering loads of fat, sweet black currant and cherry fruit. Depending on vintage, usually 75% or more Grenache with some Syrah and other Southern Rhone varietals.
As of May 2005, “Beaumes de Venise” has reached the plateau of its own appellation controlee (AOC) beginning with the 2005 vintage. Well deserved and Bravo!

Please note: Not to be confused with Muscat Beaumes de Venise, a delicious dessert wine from the same area.

This was discovered by Georges Duboeuf. Behind the unassuming name is a delightful, fruity wine whose notable pedigree makes its price astonishingly low!

An inky/ruby/purple color is followed by a glorious nose of blue and black fruits, truffles, pen ink, licorice, and meat juices as well as glorious levels of acidity and sweet tannin, buttressing the fruit’s fabulous freshness and vibrancy. This full-bodied effort still displays a little tannin, no doubt because of the relatively high Mourvedre content.
Adapted from the Wine Advocate

“Really dense and locked up now, this is packed with dark fig, currant and blackberry fruit shrouded by layers of tar, hot stone, bittersweet licorice and espresso. The long, dense finish has a great tug of iron buried within it. Best from 2011 through 2030.”

Wine Spectator

“The 2005 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin represents the essence of Beaucastel. A super-concentrated, somewhat over the top style of wine based on 60% Mourvedre, 20% Grenache, and the rest Counoise and Syrah, they only made 4,000 bottles in 2005. The wine has an inky blue/purple color, a more dramatic bouquet than the regular cuvee, consisting of asphalt, crushed pepper, fresh red beef, tar, truffle, and loads of blueberry, blackberry, and cassis. The wine is very full-bodied, extraordinarily powerful, frightfully concentrated, and very tannic and backward.” Wine Advocate # 173

“The 2003 Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin has turned out even better than I thought last year. Black purple to the rim, with an extraordinary nose of smoke, camphor, blackberry, cassis, sweet cherry, white flowers, licorice, and Chinese black tea, the wine has superb richness, huge tannins, massive concentration, and a monster finish.”—-Wine Advocate

A powerful, modern style, delivering a torrent of cassis and cocoa notes backed by a wave of tar and fig paste. Densely structured, with floral and mineral hints. Pure and driven; steel-plated for the long haul. Best from 2008 through 2027. —

“Dense dark ruby/purple with a nose of pain grille, melted licorice, espresso, chocolate, blackberry and cherry, the modern-styled 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape Boisrenard has little evidence of spicy oak but is deep in color, structured, masculine, with less flesh than some of the previous top vintages such as 1998, 2000, and 2001, but with plenty of power, concentration, and intensity. This is certainly one of the best Boisrenards since the 2001, and needs a good 4-5 years of bottle age. It should keep for at least two-plus decades.” The Wine Advocate, # 173 Oct 2007

The evolved 2003 white… exhibits honeyed fruit in its plump, soft, but not flabby, personality. It should be drunk over the next 4-5 years.
