The estate and the wine |
|
|
A cornerstone of the Southern Rhône Valley, the Perrin family has turned Château de Beaucastel into a symbol of Châteauneuf-du-Pape—one of the appellation’s most brilliant and forward-thinking estates.
Their deep expertise shines across a wider range of wines, each crafted with precision and consistency, yet always accessible. From neighboring appellations to their standout Côtes-du-Rhône wines—long loved for their heavenly value—they’ve built a lineup that’s as reliable as it is irresistible. |
|
| | |
|
Generous and beautifully ripe, the 2023 Côtes-du-Rhône Réserve Red captures the essence of a vintage shaped by a warm, radiant summer.
Black fruit aromas—led by blackberry—blend with subtle floral notes of violet. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and supple, supported by refined tannins and a bright streak of freshness. A complete, well-balanced wine that's already drinking beautifully, and will gain even more complexity over the next two to three years. A perfect match for grilled red meats or a classic Provençal daube. |
