"Bright yellow. Pungent, mineral-accented poached pear and peach nectar scents, along with suggestions of honey and dried flowers. Weighty yet energetic on the palate, offering gently sweet orchard and pit fruit flavors that are given spine by a core of juicy acidity. Rich yet nervy and sharply delineated, showing excellent finishing clarity, velvety texture and strong, mineral-driven tenacity."

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.
Produces some of the world's most powerful and long-lived Syrah from a single granite hill, yielding dense, structured reds and rich whites.
