Domaine de la Rectorie
Côte Mer Collioure Grenache Blend
Made in an oxidative way. Great character. Very food friendly. A star. This is by far the best rose I have tasted this year. Open in advance for optimum enjoyment.

Aug 28th, 2016My choice with 2day’s leg of lamb. Grenache at its sunniest &headiest.

Apr 20th, 2014There is a salty element to an otherwise very grenache nose with licorice and blackberry. There is a bit of a toasted touch too. This is very good. The palate is very well balanced and delicious. Strong acid backbone, good width with a bit of matter on the sides, a big bright blackberry fruit shining all along, and expanding midpalate with some spices and some tannins that caress and create a distorsion and a long blackberry and licorice finish that lasts for ever, with a pinch of salt. This is very good! Paired extremely well with fat duck breasts (magrets) on the barbecue ✌🏻

Jan 12th, 2019Enjoyed it but not as provoking as other Grenache I’ve tasted- only 40% Grenache. Natural! (Diversey Wines)

Jun 22nd, 2018Nez très puissant, 100% grenache apparemment et ça se sent. Fruits noirs. Peu de finesse mais ça fait plaisir de mettre son pif dans le verre.
En bouche, sensation d'alcool au début mais pas d'astringeance. Ample, voluptueux, longueur moyenne.
D'après olive, il faudrait que je regoute sans être sous l'emprise de stupéfiants...

Garnet colored with potpourri and dusty earth on the nose. Very light bodied, soft, and elegant on the palate with dried red fruit and licorice but a bit watery.

Jun 25th, 2016Another bargain from the Languedoc, but what makes this wine so unique is that the vineyards actually roll down to the edge of the sea, meaning the aromas and salts of the Mediterranean are literally absorbed into these grapes like a sponge. This baby was a bit young, but you can taste the potential. Grenache and a bit of syrah features more of the minerality of the sea then sun drenched fruit, but at a price below $20 it gets your attention.
