"It has admirable levels of sweet, voluptuous, smoky, raspberry fruit, intermingled with scents of new oak, bacon fat, and flowers. In the mouth it exhibits the up-front, precocious softness and lushness of the 1985, but with more complexity, structure, and tannin in the finish."

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 northern Rhone's most prestigious red appellation, producing perfumed, elegant Syrah, often co-fermented with a little Viognier, from steep terraced slopes.
