“It would be hard to find a better introduction to the Southern Rhone than this generous but focused Cotes-du-Rhone Villages with its fresh black-fruit character. Super balance of fine tannins and ripe fruit with lively acidity makes this very easy to enjoy. Pronounced licorice note at the long, very straight and harmonious finish. A cuvee of 75% grenache and 25% syrah. Drink or hold.”
