Domaine Gramenon

Sierra du Sud Côtes du Rhône Syrah 2015

Charles (Chad) Bucklin
8.7

A delicious #syrah at incredible value. Showing well now but should age well. Med to almost med + complexity on the nose. Blue fruit along with spice and violets. A firmly structured palate with great balance and good length. Sweet cotton candy finish. #gramenon #southernrhone #cotesdurhone #ctbucklinwine — 9 years ago

La Font de Notre Dame Rasteau Red Rhone Blend 2012

7.9

High alcohol on the nose and palate was very difficult to get by. All other structural components were medium and after an hour open I got some chocolate, faint red fruit, and faint herbs. This is neither an elegant nor complex wine. #rasteau #southernrhone #grenache — 10 years ago

Château La Canorgue

Luberon Red Rhône Blend 2016

Deep ruby hue. Fruit and anise notes with blackberry bramble, ripe blueberries, cassis, plum sauce, molasses, leather, smoked meat and peat moss; fresh and lively flavors. ABV 14.5%. Vintage 2016.

Domaine de Beaurenard (Paul Coulon et Fils)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2007

This 07 left a lot to be desired. Medium minus tannins, medium plus acidity, pale garnet color. Notes of crushed rock, pencil shavings and orange peel. Just not what I was expecting from an 07 in the southern Rhône region. #chateauneufdepape #domainedebeaurenard #southernrhone #wineproblems — 9 years ago

Domaine D'Ouréa

Vacqueyras Red Rhone Blend 2011

Mike Fifer
8.8

Whoa! A "biggin ". Decant this. Nose full of rich plum, dark cherry and black currant syrup. Notes of stewed plum, dirt, blackberry jam on palate. #decant #sediment #unfiltered #rhone #southernrhone #vacqueras — 11 years ago

Mas de Libian

Cave Vinum Côtes du Rhône

This is the Blanc. A blend of Roussanne, Viognier and Clairette (40/40/20). Low cropped, hand harvested and biodynamic. No chemicals are used and low yields are the norm. Lovely aromatics. Acid cut. #southernrhone 146 weeks later on 5th May 2018. Notes as previous. Developing a palate of old apples. Quite refreshing but no need to cellar further. — 11 years ago

Once the funk blew off this #vacqueyras was in a great drinking state. Good body. Fine complexity. A well done wine. #domainelesangdescailloux #rhonevalley #southernrhone #ctbucklinwine — 9 years ago

9.9

My first #chateaurayas and now I understand the hype. Very Burgundian in style but this is just a unique wine deserving its own category. This wine had profound complexity and was perfectly balanced. It is so young. #chateauneufdupape #southernrhone #rhonevalley #grenache #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

A touch fading and not where I was hoping it could be. The alcohol was out of balance. #chateaudebeaucastel #chateauneufdepape #grenache #southernrhone #rhonevalley #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

Domaine de la Vieille Julienne

#DomaineVieilleJulienne #2009 #ChateauneufDuPape This wine is 👏👏👏 a #MetroSexual wine with the perfect balance of #Femininity & #Masculinity ... Dark rose petals and spice on the nose... (A little like the guy who's wearing #OldSpice ...mixed with the guy who just got a Facial and a manicure and & is dressed to the 9's". Strong salty minerality, sexy, smooth... This wine has all the moves... #DoIt 🍷🍷🍷👏👏👏👏👏 @thechickstarter #Rauls #SouthernRhone — 11 years ago

Thank you for your review! Vin Gris is a classic, so food friendly, so quaffable, (too quaffable?) so versatile. The `14 vintage just became available: shop.bonnydoonvineyard.com/product/2014-Vin-Gris-de-Cigare. Cheers!
