Have been trying to find some good Côtes du Rhône options lately and did some research on this one and decided to give it a go. One of the better ones I have had. I’m not putting the bad ones on my profile because if I have nothing good to say I should just say nothing. This one doesn’t fit in that category. It needed some time to open up and release the full experience but once it did it was really flavourful and enjoyable. Next time I’ll drop it in the old decanter to get the full aroma and flavour notes out of it. It will be tried again.

Satisfyingly balanced with long finish. Bought one and then bought three more.

Julia and I thought - cranberry, black pepper and chocolate. If we weren't trying to not eat chocolate this week then we'd want some chocolate with it.
