1978 & 1990 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape

I must confess a penchant for mature Châteauneuf-du-Pape, though sadly I do not have many opportunities to drink it. It’s almost more difficult to track down ancient bottles of Rhône than of Burgundy. A dinner in February 2019 reminded me of the joys of Châteauneuf-du-Pape when it is given a chance to age and when it comes from a great producer.
