Chateau de Beaucastel 1995 Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 750ml

Very youthful, with a ripe core of red currant and raspberry fruit and licorice flavor surrounded by creamy tannins. Plenty of smoke, mineral and tobacco notes chiming in, but this still has a ways to go, with plenty of grip still on the finish.

Score: 95 points -- JM, Wine Spectator, 2006
