2022 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge Magnum (1500ml)

The 2022 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge Magnum (1500ml) is a benchmark southern Rhône red from one of the most iconic estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Produced from Beaucastel’s traditional blend of Rhône varieties, including a significant proportion of Mourvèdre, this magnum format is particularly well suited to long-term cellaring, allowing the wine to develop added complexity and finesse over time.

The nose is rich and expressive, offering aromas of blackberry, dark plum and black cherry alongside notes of dried herbs, liquorice, pepper and earthy spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with concentrated dark fruit, finely integrated tannins and fresh acidity providing balance and length. The finish is long, savoury and layered, reflecting the estate’s distinctive style and the character of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding choice for collectors and Rhône enthusiasts looking for a cellar-worthy magnum from a world-class producer. The larger format supports graceful ageing and is ideal for sharing at special dinners. Pair with slow-roasted lamb, beef short ribs, game meats or hearty mushroom dishes. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar confidently for 15–20 years and beyond.
