"Brilliant violet. Lively aromas of fresh blackberry, cherry, olive and candied flowers, along with an exotic touch of Moroccan spices. At once rich and energetic, offering palate-caressing black and blue fruit flavors and hints of violet pastille, olive and five-spice powder. Picks up a smoky nuance with air and finishes smooth, juicy and very long, leaving behind resonating mineral spice and floral 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.
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.
