Chateau/Producer: | Beaucastel | Wine Name: | Coudoulet de Beaucastel Cotes-du-Rhone | Country: | France | State: | Rhone | AOC: | Cotes du Rhone | Region: | Southern Rhone | Wine Score: | 91 | Notes: | The color is a nice garnet red, turning bricky at the very edge. It has a lovely nose of perfumey raspberry, and a nice flavor, sort of muted, of raspberry and spice, with a hint of pepper. This may have been exposed to heat after the hurricane, which may have muted the flavor somewhat. | Tasting Date: | 2005-11-24 | Varietal: | Mourvedre, Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault | Production Notes: | 30% Mourvedre, 30% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Cinsault. Coudoulet de Beaucastel is separated from the main Beaucastel estate only by highway A7. Its terroir is similar to that of Beaucastel, and, indeed, many consider it to be as good as if not better than many Ch | Price US$: | 20.00 | Source: | Whole Foods Market |
