Rasteau Côtes du Rhône Villages Red Rhône Blend

Went perfectly with a Big Fernand burger

Nothing special but blinded by the array it was poured next to. This was a perfectly acceptable Rasteau showing good complexity and typicity and lots of youth for 5 years old

Really quite dissapointing. Lifeless and flat. Non expressive palate with grippy tannins and short finish. Nose has some funky amaretto and cherry liquer going on with it. Bout as interesting as it gets

I think it would have been better with food.
