Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Unfortunately this is not the Châteauneuf-du-Pape, merely the Côtes du Rhône from Domaine Roger Perrin's Maison la Berthaude label, but Delectable is asleep at the wheel. High acid with purple flowers, Herbes de Provence, with a slate and chalk finish. The mix of red and black fruit takes a backseat on this one, but what an effort at $10 with its distinctive, character-rich style.

Jan 21st, 2017Deep ruby in color; black cherries; hibiscus, and green peppers on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like blackberries, dried herbs, and something minerally with a long finish.

Pleasant, medium-full bodied chateau neuf. Typical notes of blueberry (tending toward blueberry pie), slight Asian spice and tangerine on the nose. Well balanced acidity and tannins.
