It is a wine made to be consumed casually. I’ve had it on different occasions, and it’s not bad at all. Although it is an inexpensive wine, it has a lot of character. Expect hints of blackberry, capsicum, oak, and dried fruits.

Ruby red. Aromatic. Well-balanced tannins. Notes of berries, citrus fruits, pepper, rosemary, and oak. Nice finish.
This cuvée only produced 8,680 bottles. So, I guess I’ll never taste this wine again unless if I go and purchase a few more bottles now.
Should I?
I don’t know.

Interesting blend. Full-bodied. I’ve had it before. I think it was earlier this year. My wife and I had invited couples over for wine night, and Coteaux 2018 was one of the wines that we enjoyed that night.
I’d give it 72/100.
