"Pale brilliant gold. Ripe, mineral-tinged orchard and pit fruits on the deeply perfumed nose, complicated by dusty mineral, jasmine and ginger nuances. Shows impressive depth as well as energy; intense Meyer lemon, pear nectar and white peach flavors pick up a hint of smokiness as the wine opens up. Displays real power and repeating pit fruit character on the finish, which lingers with superb, mineral-driven persistence."

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.
