Château Coutinel
Et Ici Chez Elle A Toulouse On L'Appelle Negrette
Fronton, Southwest France, France
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. The 2022 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with beautiful floral automatics: a combination of freshly cut red and purple flowers along with wet stones, figs, plums, and dried autumn leaves. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. Finish is on the shorter side; quick and clean. A soft and approachable wine that is maybe a little bit more fun to smell than to drink… but it is pretty easy to drink. Nearly glou glou. A nice quaffer. Drink now. Thank you @Neal Ferry

Tasty, good-value; not too complex, but balanced and good with food (in this case, pasta). Great label.

On the nose mushrooms, dried roses, mint, strawberry, wet stone and hay. Palate is juicy with ripe strawberries, black licorice and black currants. Pretty thick tannins balanced by acidity.

Light and perfectly nice, but not memorable.

Light, pleasant red. Cardboard, crushed flowers on the nose, slightly sweet. Good for warm weather. Not complex on palate.
