Beaurenard's 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape (70% Grenache and 10% each of Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault aged in small barrels and foudre) is a beautiful, fully mature red that offers lots of coffee bean, roasted herbs, garrigue and sweet, almost chocolaty fruit. Nicely balanced, medium-bodied and textured, it opens up well with air and is drinking at point.
