A lighter red in the glass, this is extremely floral and offers super fragrant red flowers and red plums with mushrooms and sweet-smelling, earthy truffle-like nuances. The palate has inbuilt freshness. Super fine tannins are bathed in red plum and stony, slate like flavors. Finishes long and fresh. A wildly interesting wine of depth and detail. Drink now. ...

Dark, almost opaque ruby. Intense, spicy raspberry and wild strawberry on the nose, with an exotic gingerbread quality. Very fresh in the mouth, with energetic red fruit flavors supported by bright acidity and silky tannins. With air, an exotic floral pastille note emerged, adding even more complexity. This is very elegant, not to mention highly concentrated.

Rated 93 by Wine Spectator
Supertaut right now, with a bony intensity that drives the mix of black and red berry fruit, while notes of dark olive, thyme, sage and tobacco fill out the background. The racy finish shows a great, almost searing, minerality. Best from 2009 through 2019.

Region: Rhone Valley

For over two thousand years, the southern French region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers and wineries of many different types. The ancient Greeks were the first to discover that a wide range of grape varietals can flourish in the rich soils and micro-climates which typify the region, and little has changed to this day. In the modern age, the Rhone Valley is recognized around the world as the home of excellent quality white, red and rosé wines, as well as some of the most highly respected blended wines on earth. The region is split into two distinctive sub-regions, with the cooler, continental northern sub-region producing primarily Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier wines of exquisite quality, and the hotter southern sub-region growing a much wider variety of grapes.

Country: France

French winemakers are subjected to several laws and regulations regarding the wines they produce, and how they can be labeled and sold. Such procedures are designed to increase the overall quality of the country's produce, and also to ensure that wines made in each particular region or appellation are of a character and type which is representative of the area. Thankfully for consumers of wine world-wide, the French have a particularly high reputation to uphold, and seem to do so flawlessly. Every year, wineries from all over France produce millions upon millions of bottles of fine wine, making the most of their native grape varieties and the excellent terrain which covers most of the country. From the expensive and exquisite red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, to the white wines and cremants of central France, the French are dedicated to providing the world with wines of the highest quality and most distinctive character.
