NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied red wine from Châteauneuf-Du-Pape shows a deep ruby hue in the glass.Aromas of dark berry fruits and spice blend with hints of leather and earthiness. On the palate, there are juicy layers of dark cherry, blackberry, and cassis, accented with accents of tobacco, licorice, and pepper. The tannins are well-integrated, leading to a long and complex finish. Enjoy now or age for several years to let its complexity unfold.

ORIGINS
Winery: Alain Jaume
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
