WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine de Servans Côtes du Rhône is a Grenache Noir and Syrah blend from grapes that are organically grown. The vines that supply the grapes for this wine have an average of 40 years of age. The grapes are harvested by hand, then sorted manually. They are de-stemmed and crushed, followed by maceration in temperature controlled tanks. The two grape varietals are vinified separately and are matured in tank for a period before being bottled ready for release. The resulting wine is a full-bodied, fruity wine with notes of spice and dried herbs.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Domaine de Servans Côtes du Rhône has a medium ruby appearance.On the nose, it presents an enticing array of ripe to jammy red and dark fruits, such as strawberries, plums, and blackberries accompanied by marked notes of spices and dried herbs. The wine has a medium to full body with a smooth and velvety texture from the supple, unobtrusive tannins. The flavors of red and dark fruit persist on the palate, complemented by notes of black pepper and a touch of earthiness.

ORIGINS

Winery: Domaine de Servans

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.
