Réserve de Mont-Redon Côtes du Rhône

Deep color. Very expressive and complex nose with red fruits aromas. The mouth is rich with fines tannins and well-structured with cherry, plum and chocolate aromas. The finish is lightly spicy. This Côtes du Rhône is a blend of 80% Grenache with 20% Syrah. The climate is Mediterranean with particularly hot summers. The generous sun encourages the grapes to reveal all their best qualities on these terroirs. The Mistral wind blows away any humidity, ensuring very favorable climatic conditions to the cultivation of vines as the grapes are maturing. About the Brand: Established in 1344, Château Mont Redon is one of the oldest wine-producing estates in France and the largest single property in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. They have been considered by Robert Parker, some of the greatest Châteauneuf-du-Pape he has ever tasted. The historic estate uses their centuries of expertise as growers and winemakers to help them select from top quality parcels in the Côtes du Rhône for their Réserve Mont-Redon label. Critical Acclaim: 2017: 90 points Wine Enthusiast, Best Buy "Pretty violet perfume accents pristine but ripe black-plum flavor in this concentrated but spirited red. Full bodied and lusciously textured it maintains a fresh mineral midpalate. The moderately long finish lingers on very fine but persistent tannins." Anne Lee C. Iijima for Wine Enthusiast
