Chateau La Couranconne Cotes du Rhone Villages Plan de Dieu Cuvee Gratitude, France 2023

Description

The 2023 Château La Courançonne Côtes du Rhône Villages Plan de Dieu Cuvée Gratitude is a bold and expressive red that captures the sun-drenched character of the southern Rhône. Deep ruby in color, it opens with inviting aromas of black cherry, plum, and garrigue herbs, followed by a touch of spice and subtle earthiness. On the palate, it's well-structured yet approachable, with ripe dark fruit, smooth tannins, and a lingering, peppery finish. This vintage balances richness and freshness beautifully, making it a standout example of the Plan de Dieu appellation and a great value for Rhône lovers.
