"The bouquet out of the blocks is quite black fruity in profile, offering up scents of dark berries, cassis, charred wood, espresso, roasted meats, a superb base of soil, plenty of smokiness and a bit of black olive in the upper register. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, focused and soil-driven, with excellent mid-palate depth, ripe, seamless tannins and plenty of grip on the long, nascently complex and utterly classical finish."

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.
