Cote 50, the new vintage of La Coudraye, stands out for its consistency, vintage after vintage. A Bourgueil that remains highly expressive, with delicate, slightly spicy notes of pomegranate and cranberry. A fresh and fruity wine that is both crisp and rich.

About the estate:
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 exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, 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 venture started by his father, Yannick, in 1997. Two-thirds of the vineyards are located in Bourgueil, with the remainder in the neighboring Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil appellation. You can sense the winemakers’ perfectionism and their commitment to expressing the terroirs through Cabernet Franc wines that are silky smooth and refined, yet retain vibrant fruit. The estate has been certified organic since 2009, and the wines gain in purity each year thanks to increasingly precise winemaking techniques (truncated-cone wooden vats, barrels, and stoneware jars). The 2022 and 2023 vintages delight us with their frank, clean expression and finesse.

Definitely the best Bourgueil I've had in a long time. It's clearly a cut above what's sold at supermarket wine fairs.

Second orders of this excellent vintage—what better way to introduce these wines from the Loire region than with this Bourgueil????
