"Based on equal parts Grenache and Syrah, aged in used barrel, the 2017 Vinsobres Confidence offers more density as well as volume over the base Vinsobres. Loaded with notions of crème de cassis, graphite, crushed pepper, and Asian spices, this beauty is full-bodied, rich, layered, and incredibly sexy on the palate. Itâs very much in the style of this forward, ripe vintage and has loads to love."

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.
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.
