Tasting
The colour is purple‐tinged garnet. The aromatic range of the nose goes from fresh berries (wild raspberry, blackcurrant, blackberry) to spices. The palate is big and full‐flavoured, with silky‐smooth tannins and aromas of the fruit already mentioned. The finish introduces touches of liquorice and pepper. A Côtes du Rhône with great complexity for everyday drinking.
Recommendation: The classic Rhône to drink between 1 and 4 years. Best poured at 17°C.
