"Deep brilliant magenta. Intensely perfumed aromas of black and blue fruit preserves, exotic spices and potpourri pick up a smoky mineral nuance with air. Juicy and energetic in the mouth, displaying sweet blueberry, cherry and salty olive flavors, along with hints of spicecake and candied violet. The floral and spice notes carry through a strikingly long, penetrating finish that features harmonious tannins and a touch of bitter chocolate."

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.
The northern Rhone's most prestigious red appellation, producing perfumed, elegant Syrah, often co-fermented with a little Viognier, from steep terraced slopes.
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.
