Château de la Selve - IGP Coteaux de l'Ardèche - Beaulieu (amphore) 2021

Keywords: Fruits / Spices / Complexity

The wine: What a little bomb with excellent value for money than this Beaulieu vintage! Aged for 1 year, half in amphora and half in oak barrels, its seductive and deep aromatic reaches us as soon as the glass is raised to the nose! gourmet notes of candied red fruits (strawberry, raspberry) then appear, mixing divinely well with aromas of pepper and garrigue as well as a melted woodiness. For our greatest happiness, freshness is essential, as usual with the vinifications of Benoît Chazallon, allowing us to easily return, glass after glass, to this very beautiful wine from the Coteaux de l'Ardèche. Ideal pairings with red meats and game in perspective and magnificent aging potential!

The estate: If the Château de la Selve has a long history dating from the 13th century, it has belonged to the Chazallon family since the early 1990s. In 2002, the son of the family, Benoît, decided to create a winery. As soon as they arrive, they practice organic and biodynamic cultivation there in order to respect the limestone soils and the surrounding lands scented with scrubland. Today with 44 hectares, the estate's grape varieties are made up of Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, Cabernet-Sauvignon and Viognier. A little-known gem to discover!
