"Light bright orange. A heady, mineral-tinged bouquet evokes dried red berries, orange pith, lavender and fresh bay, along with a hint of peach pit in the background. Silky, seamless and broad on entry and then more taut in the midpalate, offering juicy cherry and blood orange flavors and a hint of tarragon. Shows an intriguing blend of red and white wine qualities and finishes extremely long and sappy, leaving behind sexy floral, mineral and red berry notes."

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.
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.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
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.
