La Vie Rouge du Castel 2023

La Vie Rouge du Castel 2023

Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.

Origin: Domaine du Castel, Judean Hills – La Vie is the estate’s younger-vine sibling to the celebrated Grand Vin.

Vintage: 2023 gave the Judean Hills ripe, healthy fruit; as a young-vine cuvee it is made for earlier drinking with the Castel signature of balance and restraint.

Why it’s good: juicy red and black fruit, gentle tannins and a fresh finish – the Castel style at a friendlier price.
