The Estate Beaucastel
"Depuis 1909, Beaucastel est la propriété de la famille Perrin, aujourd'hui sous la direction de Jean-Pierre et François, les fils de Jacques Perrin, accompagnés de Cécile, Marc, Pierre, Thomas, Charles, Mathieu et César, la cinquième génération. Autrement dit : une affaire de famille !
Situé sur un terroir de 100 hectares de galets roulés, dont 30 hectares en Côtes du Rhône (Coudoulet de Beaucastel), le Château Beaucastel produit quatre vins.
En blanc, une cuvée classique où la roussanne est dominante, et la célèbre cuvée roussannevieilles-vignes. En rouge, le mourvèdre joue un grand rôle puisqu'il représente près d'un tiers des plantations, autant que le grenache.
Cette proportion inhabituelle permet d'atteindre la finesse et la fraîcheur caractéristique de Beaucastel." 5*/5 Bettane+Desseauve
