En virkelig charmetrold. Vinen er på trods af sine unge alder prototypen på alt det, vi elsker ved Rhone (60% Grenache 25% Syrah 15% Carignan). Gennemsnitligt 50 år gamle stokke fra Cairanne. Roman finder dog stokkenes alder for unge til at bære Cairanne navnet. I duften er der toner af lakrids, blomster, solbær og lavendel. Smagen er silkeblød, kraftig og dejlig lang. En vin man bare lige må have én tår mere af. Genial til alt kraftigere mad.
“The 2017 Côtes du Rhône checks in as a blend of 50% Grenache and 25% each of Syrah and Carignan that was destemmed and brought up in tank. This deeply colored wine has impressive notes of blackberries, black cherries, violets, and spring flowers. It’s full-bodied, silky and polished, with tons of fruit and just about everything you could want from a Côtes du Rhône.
Beautiful black raspberry, peppery herbs, earth, and some chocolate notes emerge from the 2019 Côtes du Rhône. A ripe, pure, beautifully balanced Cotes du Rhone, it has no hard edges and the class to drink nicely for 4-6 years. It’s well worth seeking out and would be one heck of a house red. 89-91 pointt. This Cairanne-based estate remains a hidden gem for terrific wines that over-deliver.” Jeb Dunnuck
