2013 Coudoulet de Beaucastel Cotes du Rhone

The 2013 Côtes du Rhône Coudoulet has a crisp, crunchy feel in its black cherry, pepper and mineral-laced style. There’s good richness and depth here, but it’s a more linear, focused and structured Coudoulet that will benefit from a year or two in the cellar. 87-89 points
