Château de la Selve Beaulieu 2022
A generous biodynamic Ardèche red combining ripe black fruit, garrigue and spice with silky tannins, freshness and a persistent fruity finish.
🍇 About the wine
Beaulieu is a characterful red from the Ardèche, produced from Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache and Cinsault. It combines generous Mediterranean fruit with freshness, supple structure and a distinctive expression of garrigue.
Ageing in amphorae and barrels adds texture and complexity while preserving the wine’s vibrant fruit. The result is an approachable yet structured red with silky tannins and excellent balance.
