2013 Côtes du Rhône Rouge, Coudoulet de Beaucastel, Famille Perrin

Description

In 2013 everyone’s favourite Côtes du Rhône was made up of 30 percent Mourvèdre, 30 percent Grenache and 20 percent each of Cinsault and Syrah. The increased proportion of Mourvèdre over Grenache has resulted in a wine with more herbal notes on the attack and a more savoury mid-palate than usual. The Syrah lends silky, red fruit elegance and a majestic structure. The finish is rich and rewarding.

Critics reviews

Jeb Dunnuck 88/100
The 2013 Coudoulet de Beaucastel Ctes du Rhne offers a surprisingly ripe, rounded style to go with notes of wild strawberries, jammy black raspberry and peppery herbs. Its drinking beautifully today, but it has good mid-palate density and I suspect will evolve nicely on its balance.jeb_dunnuck - 30/10/2015

Mid crimson. Very spicy nose. Round and rich and no rough edges at all. Very distinctive. Fun and well judged. Muscular finish. jancis_robinson_mw - JancisRobinson.com - 12-Nov-2014
