Chateau Coupe Roses, Minervois (Languedoc-Roussillon, France) 2008

Nov 29, 2010

By Michael Franz

 This entry-level release from Chateau Coupe Roses shows appealing aromas and flavors that feature red fruit notes but show some suggestions of dark berries as well.  Blended from old vine Carignan and Grenache, it is medium-bodied and soft in structure but still firm enough to work well with red meat dishes as well as white meats like pork or veal.
