The Story
Tasting Notes
The 2023 Domaine de Châteaumar Cuvée Bastien Côtes-du-Rhône is a vibrant expression of old-vine Grenache, sourced from a single vineyard of 50+ year-old vines on the northern Châteauneuf-du-Pape plateau. This wine opens with a rich bouquet of black cherry and ripe plum, underscored by hints of sweet earth and graphite. On the palate, it delivers a smooth, medium-bodied texture with a ripe, open-knit structure that makes its fruit-forward character immediately appealing. Notes of spice, subtle licorice, and a touch of smoke add complexity, while firm tannins and balanced acidity carry through to a long, spicy finish. Elegant yet approachable, it captures the essence of Southern Rhône terroir with finesse and charm.
