    The wine

    Harvested by hand, the domain's white Châteauneuf is fermented at a controlled temperature (18-20°C) to enhance the fruitiness and minimise "technological" aromas. Malolactic fermentation is not conducted, and the wine will be matured on the lees for 5 to 6 months, partly in barrels (10-20% of the cuvée). Tender, powerful and complex, the white wine is distinguished by its floral (hawthorn, acacia, linden) and white fruit (peach, apricot) aromas. Freshness and elegance characterise this rare cuvée from the domain.

    Information about domain Beaurenard

    The family run Domaine Beaurenard has been passed down over seven generations and is run today by brothers, Daniel and Frédéric Coulon. There is plenty to keep them busy with 32 hectares in Châteauneuf and 25 hectares in Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages Rasteau. The domain is known for powerful wines and favours ageing potential and the aromatic rewards that come with time, over instantly pleasing cuvées. The wines are fermented in wooden vats and then barrelled and matured over fine lees for between 9 and 18 months.The property was certified organic (Ecocert) as from its 2010 vintage and biodynamic (Demeter) from 2011. Nothing has changed as an outcome of these accreditations but they give the domain ""official recognition”. The crops are sprayed regularly with plant preparations. In the vineyards, the soil is worked without herbicides, carefully-dynamised manure is spread, and a sensible level of grass cover is maintained.
