WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Charvin Côtes du Rhône is a highly regarded wine produced by the Charvin family in the southern Rhône Valley of France. The wine is made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes grown in the family's vineyards, which are known for their stony soils and excellent sun exposure. The winemaking process is traditional, with a focus on minimal intervention and allowing the grapes to express their natural flavors and aromas. The resulting wine is a classic example of a Côtes du Rhône, with a deep ruby color, aromas of dark fruit and spices, and a medium-bodied, rich flavor with a long finish. It is a wine that is both approachable and complex, making it a favorite among wine enthusiasts and collectors alike.

ORIGINS
Winery: Domaine Charvin
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
