"Inky ruby. Scents of fresh blackberry and boysenberry, complicate by smoky herbs and pungent floral notes. Sappy, appealingly sweet dark berry and cherry flavors show very good delineation and pick up a spicy quality with air. Finishes with bright, energetic cut, sneaky tannins and lingering sweetness."

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.
