Tasting Notes

Ripe blackberry, red berries, violet, and cracked pepper mingle with savory herbs and a subtle graphite edge. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and supple, with rounded tannins, balanced freshness, and a polished, lingering finish.

Food Paring

Serve this supple Rhône red with grilled lamb, roast beef, or venison to complement its dark fruit and peppery spice. It is equally appealing with charcuterie, aged cheeses, or a rustic mushroom dish for an easy, versatile pairing.

Professional Reviews

"An excellent expression that speaks to the style, region and red blend classics from the southern Rhone. Aromas and flavours of plums and blackcurrants, raspberry and dried herbs, sage and thyme, medium+ tannins and acidity frame a textured palate with a decent line of fruit and lots of style. Well made with good length and finish. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2029."

"Composed of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, and 10% Mourvèdre, the 2023 Côtes du Rhône reveals lovely notes of blackberries, red berries, peppery herbs, and violets. Medium-bodied and supple on the palate, it offers a round, charming texture and a lovely balance. Aged partly in large oak casks, this easy-drinking wine will shine over the next 5 to 7 years."
