Appellation: Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Region: Rhône Valley
Country: France
Grapes: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre
Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
Biodynamic Châteauneuf from the Coulon family, a blend led by Grenache with Syrah, Mourvèdre and the full spread of the appellation's permitted varieties, aged mostly in large old foudres so the fruit stays in front. Perfumed raspberry and kirsch over garrigue, black pepper and liquorice, with fine-grained tannins and a stony, savoury finish rather than raw power. One of the more elegant houses in the appellation, and it ages gracefully into leather and dried herbs.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
