Château Beauchene Grande Réserve Côtes du Rhône 2020
Côtes du Rhône, Rhone Valley, FranceFrom plots around the château, replanted around 15 years ago in the region's limestone clays, this blends 35% syrah, 30% grenache, 23% mourvèdre, 8% marselan, and 4% carignan. It was fermented and aged up to 1 year in stainless. Crushed raspberries, strawberries flood the juicy, cushy palate of this CdR, with ample stony underlay, and finely grippy tannins bracing the full, yet fresh red to a spiced violet finish. Drinking smartly now, ideally with roast pork / mushrooms.Tasted: 06 January 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices: Producer: Château BeaucheneBlend: Syrah - Grenache - Mourvèdre - Carignan
