Côtes du Rhône Villages, Southern Rhône, Rhône, FranceCôtes du Rhône Villages, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France2012 vintage. This wine kept growing on me over two days and is finishing absolutely delicious. On open it shows lots of very concentrated flavors -- mandarin orange, licorice, and some toasty oak notes. On day 2 it's more integrated and resolved, showing great balance and richness. It's curious -- there's something "red" flavored on the palate as well (ripe black plum?) -- served blindfolded I might guess red wine. I'm loving the richness and distinctiveness, but perhaps it's not for everybody...
