A lovely fruity taste. Kept on drinking over several glasses.
heard Jean Smullen give glowing review on Moncrieff's Movies & Booze segment on Newstalk. She was spot on!
It reminds me to Burgundy. Mineral, lovely acidity, and tropical fruits.

Château Beauchêne Côtes du Rhône Grande Réserve has an intense garnet red in colour. A bouquet of red ripe fruits, violet and blackcurrant, with some spicy notes. Round and intensely aromatic, the tannins are soft and this wine has a wonderful long finish.
Food Pairing: Ideal match for beef carpaccio, lamb shoulder and cheeses.
Michel Bernard’s family has lived in Orange since the 17th century. Managers, or tenant farmers, the Bernards were to profit from the social upheavals of the French Revolution, buying their first vineyard soon after the conflict in 1794. This vineyard is still present nowadays.
Since 1971, Michel Bernard and his wife Dominique have run the vineyard, which they have developed since and in 2004, their eldest daughter joined the board. Today Château Beauchêne has become the hub for the vinification and maturation of all the cuvees from the different vineyards owned by the family. Three appellations are represented amongst their 70 hectares, Châteauneuf du Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône Villages, Côtes-du-Rhônes.
