Domaine de Beaurenard
Rasteau
100% Estate grown from the Coulon family’s 60 acre holdings
in Rasteau. A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, coharvested and co-fermented to increase the complexity
of the wine from this up and coming AOC, now producing
exceptional red wines in addition to the traditional Vin Doux
Naturel expressions from the region.
Well oriented south-facing slopes and terraces offer ideal
sunshine exposure. The vines flourish in low-yielding (25-38
hl/ha), stony limestone clay soil and find their full expression
thanks to certified organic and biodynamic agriculture.

Beautifully deep in color, Rasteau offers intense aromas of black fruit and blueberries, lifted by a touch of spice. The density and depth
of the palate associate fruit and minerality with remarkable
persistence.

17 Points
"Tasted blind. An engaging nose with plenty of interest, dark fruits, graphite and crushed plums. Layered, fresh with soft and rounded tannins, spice and a rich textured finish. Already open and has good vibrancy throughout."
— Alistair Cooper MW, 2025
