"Mouthfilling licorice and cassis flavors mark this sexy, hedonistic blend of Grenache (60%) and Syrah (40%). Aged briefly en barrique, it's luminously fruity but shaded by whispers of charcuterie, clove and smoke. Full-bodied and glossy in tannins, it's an immediately inviting wine to enjoy through 2027."

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.
