Rating: Bettane & Desseauve 14/20
"A pleasant bouquet of fresh fruit (strawberries, grapefruit) heralds a fresh, lively, and enjoyable palate with floral notes. It pairs perfectly with grilled meats." (Le Grand Guide des Vins de France 2011 - Bettane & Desseauve). Rhône Paradox red offers a generous , and a delightful taste. The nose evokes redcurrants and wild strawberries, while the palate charms with its balance of both density and freshness, resulting in great elegance, punctuated by a taut finish with beautifully crafted tannins. The Grand Classic of Château Mas Neuf!

About the estate:
“Luc Baudet had the audacity to settle in this region, which is still heavily influenced by the cooperative. With a deep attachment to the Costières de Nîmes, he made his home at Mas Neuf. The richness of the terroirs allows him to offer three types of cuvée: Rhône Paradox, focused on the freshness and purity of the fruit; Compostelle, the result of careful selection from old vines, as well as grapes from the best plots. And finally Armonio, born from a collaboration with Louis Mitjavile (Tertre Roteboeuf, in Saint-Emilion, notably).”
