Domaine de Beaurenard

The Domaine de Beaurenard has been a family-owned estate for seven generations in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, in the Rhône Valley. A notarial deed dated December 16, 1695, mentions “Bois Renard,” which over the years became “Beaurenard.” The Coulon brothers, Daniel and Frédéric, succeeded their parents Paul and Régine, and are committed to carrying on the tradition. Domaine de Beaurenard spans 32 hectares of vineyards in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and 25 hectares of Côtes du Rhône Villages Rasteau.

The terroir of Châteauneuf-du-Pape is unique, notably for its large stones which, heated by the sun, radiate gentle warmth into the soil, thereby promoting the ripeness and concentration of the grapes. Domaine de Beaurenard features the appellation’s characteristic “Symphony of 13 Grape Varieties,” which brings aromatic complexity, power, and balance. For red wines, four dominant varieties—Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault—are complemented by Counoise, Muscardin, Terret Noir, and Vaccarèse. The whites are made from white grape varieties: Clairette, Roussane, Bourboulenc, Grenache blanc, Picardan, and Picpoul. The average age of the vines at Domaine de Beaurenard is approximately 45 years, with yields in Châteauneuf ranging from 25 to 35 hl/ha.
