Ratings: Robert Parker 90–92/100, Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 14/20
The 2009 Les Christins offers a spectacular nose—highly complex, intense, and deep—with notes of roots, gentian, licorice, cypress, and peppery rose. The palate is powerful and very structured, with dense tannins. A top-notch Vacqueyras!

About the estate:

Over the past 15 years, the Perrin family of Château de Beaucastel has expanded by acquiring estates in the southern Rhône Valley. This strategy has proven successful both in the Luberon, with La Vieille Ferme, and in the other terroirs featured here. Their mastery of fermentation and appropriate aging techniques have played a major role in this success.
