""The top wine of the estate based on Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, the 2015 Cairanne Vieilles Vignes' ruby purple color is followed by a classic, elegant bouquet of dark fruits, black olive, incense, and peppery garrigue. Medium-bodied, tight, and nicely structured on the palate, with vibrant acidity, this winner from Cairanne will drink nicely . . ."

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.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
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.
