Famille Perrin Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge

Presentation

This wine is produced by the Perrin family, using the same viticultural and wine-making techniques used at Château de Beaucastel

Ageing

The harvest is sorted and destemmed. Vinification then takes place in stainless steel and oak. Ageing in tanks and Foudre (25%) for a year.

The vintage

In 2010, all the right conditions were united to produce an exceptional vintage.
Heavy rainfall during spring, followed by a very hot summer and an Indian summer in September allowed for great harvest conditions.
This vintage produced very balanced wines with intense notes of fruit and great finesse.
