"Shows the roasted, slightly burly edge of the vintage, but the grilled chestnut, dark bittersweet cocoa, maduro tobacco, licorice root and black currant paste notes are still defined and distinctive, delivering iron and roasted apple wood notes that pound through the long, tannic finish. A gloriously old-school style"

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
