Coming Soon - 2022 Famille Perrin Cotes du Rhone Reserve
Famille Perrin is behind one of Chateauneuf du Pape’s most iconic estates - Chateau de Beaucastel. Their entry level Cotes du Rhone is made from a blend of Grenache, Mourvedre and Syrah matured in a mix of oak barrels and stainless steel vats for a period of 12 months.
Layered with deep, succulent fruit this is a terrific Cotes du Rhone from the family behind one of Chateauneuf du Pape’s greatest estates.
Midnight black dark red colour with a dark red hue. Sailing through the nostrils are elevated aromatics of black raspberry, liquorice and black cherry infused with herbs du Provence. Some scorched earth and pepper notes are also evident. Rich, juicy black raspberry, liquorice and ripe black cherry fruits explode across the palate with plenty of intensity and power. Lending further nuance are notions of scorched earth and peppered dried herbs. A fleshy mouthfeel is counterpointed by slightly chewy tannins. The long, succulent finish laced with peppery dried herb elements. A super impressive Cotes du Rhone that delivers fantastic value.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
