"Classic fruit centric and mineral bouquet of a benchmark style with aromas of sweet plum and toasted dark berries, a granitic mineral and sweet baking spices of wood suggesting vanilla and a touch of clove. On the palate - dry, fruity, textured and reflective of the bouquet. Fine tannins and medium acidity, a wine ready to drink with pastas and red meat dishes, even a cheese selection will work well with this wine." - Cameron Douglas MS
Using the classic Cotes du Rhone grape varieties of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvèdre this is a great example why this world famous red is loved by so many – medium bodied, juicy, succulent style red with a touch of dark, spicy fruit flavours.
If you like full bodied Italian style reds particularly Amarone then this is a really good everyday drinking alternative. Especially suited for winter meals or perhaps bbq lamb in summer. I’ve just finished ordering some more.
A great range to select from but scored 4 for a 2 day delivery in AKL & challenges in processing my order online.
