Cote 50, the new edition of La Coudraye, shines with its consistency, vintage after vintage. A Bourgueil that is always very expressive, with delicate notes of pomegranate and cranberry, slightly spiced. A fresh and fruity wine, both crisp and delicious.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rating (2020 guide) 15.5/20 (2018 vintage) (Good wine)
Rated estate (2026 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the estate:
Benoît arrived at the family estate in Bourgueil in 2003 to continue the family adventure started by his father Yannick in 1997. Two-thirds of the vineyard is located in Bourgueil, with the rest in the neighboring Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation. You can sense the winemakers' perfectionism and their desire to express the terroir through very silky and civilized Cabernet Franc wines that retain their vibrant fruitiness. The estate has been certified organic since 2009 and the wines are gaining in purity every year thanks to increasingly precise vinification methods (conical wooden vats, barrels and stoneware jars). The 2022 and 2023 vintages delight us with their frank, clear expression and finesse.

Review and opinion by Mr. VINCENT C. Published on 06/30/2021
Certainly the best Bourgueil I've had in a long time. Far superior to what's sold at supermarket wine fairs.

Second orders of this excellent vintage. What better way to promote these wines from the Loire region than with this Bourgueil?
