Pierre et Jérôme Coursodon - Rose et Mauve 2021
"New vintage!"
Grown on poor, shallow soils east of Mauves, Rose & Mauve is a superb Syrah rosé from granite-based soil. Surprisingly well-balanced and delightful, it pairs perfectly with salmon en papillote or a four-season pizza.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Jérôme Coursodon heads one of the renowned estates in Mauves. The Saint-Joseph wines from this part of the appellation (Mauves-Tournon) differ from those further north, around Sarras, even though all are produced on granite soils. The estate’s reds are often more fully developed than the whites.

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
The Coursodon family has been in the wine business since the late 19th century. The estate owns vineyards in the renowned regions of Mauves, Tournon, Saint-Jean-de-Muzol, and Glun. The whites display a lovely character, without excessive oak. As for the reds, L'Olivaie comes from the heart of Sainte-Épine, in the village of Saint-Jean-de-Muzols. However, the most recent vintages struck us as overly assertive, with very pronounced oak notes. The result is wines that are not always easy to drink. We regretfully have to remove one star from the estate’s rating.

Plenty of fruit, both on the nose and on the palate.

Review by Mr. Gilles D. Published on May 19, 2022
Following the release of Etincelle in 2015, this new vintage from the multi-starred Coursodon estate was bound to spark the utmost curiosity. The result is a success: guaranteed pleasure at an affordable price. A crystal-clear rosé color. A nose reminiscent of English candy. Pure Syrah at 12.5%. Dazzling smoothness, exuberant density, and abundant aromas with notes of cherries, redcurrants, and cranberries, enhanced by subtle hints of sweet spices. Full-bodied on the palate, slightly rich, and just a touch sweet, with deliciously supple tannins that stretch into a long, mouth-watering, and very refreshing finish, with a hint of pepper. Rating: 4.4. Just like its violet-colored cork, this sensual rosé, brimming with indulgence, was unanimously enjoyed from 8° as an aperitif all the way through a dish of salmon, spinach, and Parmesan lasagna. A useful reminder from Coursodon: the work of the winemakers and producers accounts for 35% of the price of the bottle and its contents; the remaining 65% consists of production taxes levied by the “Providence” state or the “Mama” state, addicted to public spending...
