Tasting Notes: | Drinking Dates: 2016 to 2024 | Cépagement: 40% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah, 20% Cinsault | Soil: Diluvial alpine deposits with rolled pebbles over a former molasse sea bed of the Miocene epoch (tertiary period) | Upbringing: Handpicking and hand-sorting is followed by flash heating of the berries to 80°C and cooling to 20°C. Blending after malolactic fermentation then ageing in large oak foudres for 6 months | ABV: 13.5% | Critic Reviews: “The 2014 Coudoulet de Beaucastel Côtes du Rhône is a Provençal, charming effort that’s loaded with dark berry fruit, bouquet garni, leather, and garrigue aromas and flavors. Rounded, forward and still with mid-palate depth, it’s geared for drinking over the coming 5-6 years.” 89/100 Jeb Dunnock ( Wine Advocate) |
