AWARDS
Stephen Tanzer: 91/100
Tasting Notes: A very appealing, intense, deep and brilliant red in colour. Complex nose reminiscent of red fruit, leather, liquorice and spices. Clean, mouth-filling and immediately unctuous impact. Presence of soft tannins. A lingering, aromatic finish.
Food Pairing: Lamb

Southern Rhône Blend
The vast majority of wines from the Southern Rhône are blends. There are 5 main black varieties, although others are used and the most famous wine of the region, Châteauneuf du Pape, can be made from as many as 13 different varieties. Grenache is the most important grape in the southern Rhône - it contributes alcohol, warmth and gentle juicy fruit and is an ideal base wine in the blend. Plantings of Syrah in the southern Rhône have risen dramatically in the last decade and it is an increasingly important component in blends. It rarely attains the heights that it does in the North but adds colour, backbone, tannins and soft ripe fruit to the blend.
