"Bright violet. Highly perfumed cassis, boysenberry, violet, olive and mineral scents show excellent clarity. Densely packed, smooth and energetic on the palate, offering concentrated black and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors that are given spine by a core of juicy acidity. Shows appealing sweetness on the impressively persistent finish, which features rounded tannins and lingering blue fruit 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.
