Winemakers Notes
Clearly a wine from a warm place, with its amber hues and richness of texture. The nose is reminiscent of morello cherries, flowers and liquorice. On the palate it shows an unctuous texture and is rich and concentrated.

Reviews for 2003 Vintage
Outstanding Rhone blend. Aromas of plum, leather, thyme, and tobacco with a hint of apricot. Flavors of plum, allspice, and blackberry. Nice spicy finish that was warm and lingering. Excellent. Will definitely look for other vintages of this wine.
Deliciously ripe blackberry and raspberry fruit races along fine tannins and fresh acidity, while floral, mineral and tar notes play in the background. Structured, balanced and focused. Drink now through 2007. -Wine Spectator
Jean Pierre and Francois Perrin have taken particular care that this Cotes du Rhone meets their stringent standards of excellence. As proprietors of Chateau de Beaucastel in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, the Perrin family has demonstrated exceptionally high standards for nearly a century. The Rouge originates from a significant portion of the Perrin's own vineyards, including those at Chateau Grand Prebois. Produced from 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre, and 10% Cinsault, some of which are flash-heated using the same methods as those at Chateau de Beaucastel, the fruit is rich and jammy with peppery spice, concentration and intensity.
