James SucklingA very typical Cotes-du-Rhone red with full red fruit and plenty of baking spice. Full body and a warm, yet gently dry mouthfeel, in spite of the challenging vintage. Good length and excellent harmony at the finish. A cuvee based on grenache with syrah and other traditional grapes.
Rhone red blend wines, originating from France's Rhone Valley, artfully combine Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes to create complex and balanced wines. These blends showcase a harmonious interplay of red fruit, spiciness, and earthy notes, with Grenache providing vibrant fruitiness, Syrah adding depth and pepperiness, and Mourvèdre contributing structure and complexity. The diverse terroir of the Rhone Valley results in a range of styles, from the approachable Côtes du Rhône to the robust Châteauneuf-du-Pape, highlighting the region's winemaking prowess and offering a captivating array of flavors.
