The Perrin family, best known for Château de Beaucastel, brings the same commitment to terroir and balance to their 2021 Rasteau Andéol. Sourced from the sun-drenched hills of Rasteau, one of the Rhône Valley’s most structured appellations, this Grenache-dominant wine captures the power and depth of the region while maintaining freshness and finesse.
Blackberry, plum, and black cherry form the aromatic core, layered with notes of black pepper, dried herbs, and cocoa. The palate is rich and velvety, with supple tannins and a lingering, spicy finish. Compared to Perrin’s more fruit-driven Côtes du Rhône bottlings, Rasteau Andéol leans into structure and intensity, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy fuller-bodied Southern Rhône reds.
A perfect match for grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, or aged cheeses, this 2021 Rasteau Andéol is drinking beautifully now but has the depth to evolve over the next 5–8 years. A fantastic Rhône wine that overdelivers for the price.
