Note di degustazione
Deep ruby. A complex bouquet evokes ripe red fruits, garrigue , peppery spices and minerals, joined by a slowly emerging a floral note. Sappy and focused in the mouth, offering nicely concentrated, appealingly sweet cherry and black currant flavors that deepen on the back half. Fine-grained tannins shape a long, spicy finish and fold smoothly into the sappy fruit.

A bit high-toned and even a tad stinky. Definite horse blanket here. Great address but you need to be a Beaucastel aficionado to love this. (JR)
A juicy, forward and textured example of this cuvee (especially when tasted next to the 2013), the 2012 Coudoulet de Beucastel Côtes du Rhône has juicy blueberry, garrigue and lavender notes to go with a fleshy, medium to full-bodied feel on the palate. Soft, with low acidity and a hard-to-resist feel, it has just enough tannic grip to keep it drinking nicely for 7-8 years.
Youthful purple. Spicy, highly perfumed dark berry and Indian spice scents show very good clarity and pick up a smoky nuance with air. Densely packed but lithe too, with juicy black and blue fruit flavors and a touch of lavender adding lift. Dusty tannins shape the finish, which clings with impressive tenacity and subtle spiciness. According to Marc Perrin, the vines that provide the fruit for this wine are now over 80 years old.
