"Saturated ruby. Powerful spice and mineral-accented aromas of ripe dark berries and licorice slowly develop a hint of garrigue. Broad and sweet in the mouth, offering sappy blackberry and cherry flavors and a suggestion of spicecake. Smooths out on the plush finish, which features fine-grained tannins, echoes of floral pastilles and a jolt of peppery spices."

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.
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.
