"Deep ruby. Sexy aromas of black raspberry, violet, olive and black pepper, plus a subtle smoky quality. Sweet, open-knit red and dark berry flavors are complicated by notes of baking spices and a hint of candied flowers. Gains weight with air and finishes with very good mineral cut and lingering, seductive florality."

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.
