Château Belles Eaux Les Coteaux Rouge 2023

The Château Belles Eaux Les Coteaux Rouge 2023 perfectly captures the sun-drenched charm of the Languedoc. Hailing from the eponymous château, nestled among rolling hills and vineyards brimming with Mediterranean herbs, this wine exudes warmth, vibrancy, and elegance.

This wine is made from a classic Southern French blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Carignan. Together, they create a perfect balance: Syrah brings depth and spice, Grenache yields juicy red fruit, Mourvèdre adds power and structure, and Carignan brings freshness and vibrancy.

In the glass, the wine shines with an intense ruby ​​red color. The nose opens invitingly with aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherries and raspberries, complemented by blackberries and a hint of blackcurrant. Spicy and floral notes, a hint of wild Mediterranean plants, and a subtle peppery note intersperse, giving the wine tension and character.

On the palate, the Les Coteaux Rouge presents itself as round and supple. The fruit takes center stage: juicy, lively, and energetic. The spicy nuances provide depth, while mild tannins and a touch of oak give the wine structure and balance. The mouthfeel is warm, elegant, and harmonious, without being heavy.

The finish is pleasantly long, with a fresh note that accentuates the fruit and a light spiciness that lingers. This makes the wine suitable for drinking young for its pure fruity charm, or for storing for a few years to develop more depth.

This wine is above all an accessible and cheerful wine. Ideal for sharing during a dinner or simply a convivial evening with friends – a glass that immediately takes you back to the sunny vineyards of the Languedoc.
