Pretty pale-yellow colour with aqua green undertones. The nose is very delicate with notes of white flowers, lime blossom and citrus zest. Beautifully round and full of freshness on the palate, this wine develops elegant floral and slightly buttery notes.
Presentation
Presentation
Certified Ecocert, Perrin Nature is both an "organic" Côtes-du-Rhône and a great wine. Stemming from our experience in organic farming (Beaucastel was one of the first major French estates to turn to organic farming 40 years ago), this wine has great freshness combining fruity and floral aromas.
The vintage
The 2023 vintage is characterised by a beautiful climatic balance, which is reflected in the cellar. The mild winter was followed by a dry spring then a hot summer, particularly in August and September. Despite a slight lack of rain, these conditions allowed ideal ripening and the harvest began on August 22nd in perfect conditions. Under a warm and radiant sun, the harvest went perfectly, even if it was necessary to work quickly to prevent the juices from oxidizing in the heat, particularly the rosés. The harvest ended on October 4, with the last devatting on October 23. The first tastings reveal very balanced wines: they are rich, powerful and have good concentration, while having retained a beautiful freshness. A vintage that shows great potential.
Location
The vineyard is located in the northern part of Côtes du Rhône, on the locality of Vinsobres and its surroundings.
Terroir
Stones, gravelly clay and limestone soils.
Ageing
The grapes are harvested early in the morning to preserve their freshness. After pressing, the juices are cold settled in order to remove suspended particles. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperatures of 16 ° C. The wines are then racked and aged in stainless steel tanks until bottling.

Tasting
Beautiful intense yellow-colour, clear and shiny, with silver reflections. Very refined, the nose reveals delicate notes of white flowers highlighted by a gourmet touch of acacia honey. Well balanced, the palate opens with a beautiful fresh attack before evolving towards greater fullness and roundness, revealing seductive aromas of juicy peaches with a long finish with honeyed notes.
