Coudoulet de Beaucastel Cotes-du-Rhone Red Rhone Blend
Côtes du Rhône, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Garnacha-led blend from Southern Rhône providing excellent value for the price point. Full bodied palette, deep ruby colour, good tension, and well-balanced tannins showcase the red and black fruit (black cherry, blueberry and blackberries), spice and chocolate.

Feb 28th, 2022We served this wine at my daughter’s wedding and I really never paid attention to it. I have about case left. Beaucastel does a great job at everything they produce, of course their CDP and especially the Hommage are outstanding. But this wine in this vintage is outstanding too. Great purity, red fruits and spice, full bodied and lush. Fills your mouth with a long burn making you go for the next glass. A great wine at an affordable price.

Mid to deep crimson in colour. Notes of red cherry, raspberry and other red fruits together with a charcoal smoky note. The palate is medium plus bodied with those same savoury red fruits finishing with rather coarse tannins. I was expecting more given how good the producer is. “Baby Beaucastel “ as it is known. Will have the next in a year or two. Tasted 78 weeks later on 5th February 2022 with similar notes. A bit square sided.

Good Côtes du Rhône. A bit sour and bitter for my taste at first

Floral, redfruits peaking out but youthful and quite closed down at this time, medium-long finish, this needs further aging (5+ years or more).

Drinking 2017 vintage in 2024 after aging in wine refrigerator. Dark Fruit and violet notes, lighter to medium bodied. Not overly tannic, slightly tart finish.
