Famille Coulon Le Petit Renard Rouge 2020

$1899

From the Coulon family of Domaine de Beaurenard (eight generations in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, certified organic and biodynamic), this is their everyday red — a Grenache-led blend (around 60% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 5% Viognier) fermented in stainless to keep things fresh and fruit-forward. The Viognier co-fermentation is a Northern Rhone trick that gives lift and aromatic snap to the Grenache and Syrah core. Antonin and Victor Coulon wanted a wine "made with Rhone varieties but with the South of France in mind" — un-fussy, eminently delicious, and astonishingly affordable.

"Vibrant aromas of cherry and vanilla open this wine. Cherry, cranberry, dried herbs and light tannin lead to a lingering, creamy finish."

More about Famille Coulon

The allure of the Mediterranean is strong — it turns out, even the French aren’t immune to the pull!

The Coulon family has owned the esteemed Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate Domaine de Beaurenard for eight generations. They’re organically- and biodynamically-certified not only in Châteauneuf, but also their projects in Rasteau and Côtes du Rhône.

Brothers Antonin and Victor Coulon saw a need for totally un-fussy, eminently delicious, and astonishingly affordable wines. Thus, Petit Renard was born. The “little fox” wines are made with Rhône varieties but with the South of France in mind — easy, breezy blends made with the same careful viticulture and winemaking techniques as the Coulon family’s most expensive Châteauneufs.

Everything is farmed biodynamically, coming from vineyards in AOC Côtes-du-Rhône, AOC Côtes-du-Rhône villages, and AOC Ventoux. In the winery, everything is treated as gently as possible to maximize freshness and pure fruit expression.
