Château de Beaucastel, Wine estate in Courthézon, France.
Château de Beaucastel is a wine estate in Courthézon covering 130 hectares (320 acres) with 100 hectares (247 acres) of vineyards. The soil consists of marine molasses and rounded stones deposited by the Rhône River.
Pierre de Beaucastel founded the estate in 1549 by purchasing land and a barn at this location. This purchase marked the beginning of wine production here.
The estate produces wine using all 13 grape varieties permitted in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which reflects the region's winemaking traditions. This commitment to grape diversity shapes the character of each vintage and demonstrates a dedication to craft.
The estate is located on Chemin de Beaucastel in Courthézon and visitors should contact in advance to arrange visits. Planning ahead ensures availability and allows for a more tailored experience.
The Mistral wind from the Alps cools the vineyards and shapes the aromatic character of the wines. This cold wind is a natural part of the terroir and influences the flavor of each bottle.
