"Opaque ruby. Powerful, floral-accented aromas of cherry and dark berries, with smoke, licorice and cured meat qualities adding complexity. Deep and broad in the mouth, offering powerful cassis and bitter cherry flavors braced by zesty minerality. Closes with solid grip and very good focus, leaving licorice and violet notes behind."

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.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
