Counoise
Filter
Counoise is a red wine grape hailing from France’s Rhone Valley. Counoise is one of the grapes allowed for use in Chateauneuf du Pape. Counoise is black skinned and will display notes of pepper and moderate acidity, but will also add plum, strawberry, raspberry, anise, and licorice flavors. Chateau de Beaucastel is one of the producers that prefer the Counoise grape and incorporate about 5% in their blends. Besides Southern Rhone, Counoise is also grown in Provence, Languedoc, and recently released in California. Syrah makes for an ideal blending grape for Counoise, in addition to Grenache and Mouvedre. Counoise will allow younger wines to display more powerful aromas and a stronger palate. Counoise is primarily utilized in blends due to the lack of color, tannin, and alchohol when by itself. In Provence, Counoise is used in making Rose wine with good acidity that is dynamic and refreshing. California is trending towards the production of Counoise single varietal wines.
