"Showing more maturity than most, with colors of garnet and brick and aromas of brick dust and sandalwood. But don't be fooled, this still has a solid core of sweet cherry, currant and brandy-soaked plum fruit, layered with sweet spice, tobacco and mineral notes that drive the structured finish. Tender for the most part, but with some latent grip, this is a lovely version of the traditional 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.
