Description

Chateau de Beaucastel's Coudoulet Blanc is a Southern Rhone white blend from the 2023 vintage, drawn from equal parts Viognier, Marsanne, and Bourboulenc. It sits in the Côtes du Rhône appellation, where these southern varietals thrive in a warm Mediterranean climate.

The wine opens with a fragrant bouquet of fresh lemon, honeysuckle, and delicate spice notes (turmeric, herbs) alongside hints of apricot and orchard fruit. On the palate it's medium-bodied and lithe, with a bright aromatic spine that drives the wine forward. The texture is seamless and enveloping, with good acidity that keeps the mid-palate juicy and alive. It closes with a persistent, mouthwatering finish marked by cleanliness and focus. This is a wine that shows elegance and precision in its youth, though it's balanced enough to reward a few years of cellaring if you prefer.

A balanced, lively and precise white with aromas of fresh lemons, linden and exotic spices such as turmeric. It’s medium-bodied, with a bright core of aromatic herbs and spices bringing vitality on the palate. Vivid and focused, with a well-driven, persistent finish. Drink or hold.

The 2023 Cotes du Rhone Coudoulet de Beaucastel Blanc is a straightforward white wine in the making, evoking a perfumed bouquet of flowers, apricot and ripe orchard fruits mingled with delicate notes of spices. Moderately weighted and enveloping, it’s perfectly balanced with a juicy mid-palate, seamless texture and a long, mouthwatering finish. Crafted from equal parts of Viognier, Marsanne and Bourboulenc.
