Wine in Cotes du Rhone

This wine epitomizes what should always be the essence of a true wine. One of the two properties from which grapes are sourced is owned by a childhood friend and the other belongs to my cousins. We have been working together on this wine for 15 years now. Trust and friendship form its basis. The blend of Syrah from Vinsobres with Syrah from Villafranchian terraces in Gard always produces wonderful balance, fleshiness and finesse. You may get to know the 2015 vintage through this wine – the oxblood color, the depth, sappy character and wonderful round tannins for instance. You can easily sense the intensity with which fruit was imbued in 2015, a truly superb vintage. Successfully ripened grapes combined with freshness and our Syrah vines loved a hot July in 2015. This is exemplified in the magnificent wines produced in 2015 in the northern Rhone valley. The whole point of our Côtes du Rhône is to offer an early drinking wine that also has very good aging capacity. I recently tasted the 2007 again which was really complex and still young. Welcome to 2015, the finest vintage since 2010. Blackcurrant, camphor, truffle, rose and blueberry.

Deep and dark red. Shiny. Aromas of fresh fruits with red berries and spices. Full, round and racy. Rounded and smooth tannins. A full-bodied, rich and intensely aromatic wine.

Mainly Grenache, then Cinsault and Syrah.

Famille Perrin Reserve Cotes du Rhone Rouge has a pretty deep color. The nose offers a beautiful aromatic complexity, marked by Grenache and a hint of blackcurrant brought by the ripe Syrah. On the palate, it shows complexity with tannins still present, but with finesse and elegance, and a beautiful freshness. Pairs well with beef, lamb and poultry.

The growing success we have enjoyed over the last three vintages is proof enough that the KL Côtes du Rhône fits both the taste profile and quality standards that our customers have come to expect. Since 1929, this winery has been bringing local vignerons together from the outlying areas of Avignon in the Southern Rhône to produce delicious wines that epitomize the region’s complex terroirs. Kermit works closely with winemaker Jean-François Pasturel to develop the blend. Pasturel is thrilled to be able to have the chance to produce a Côtes du Rhône he does not have to filter to death. It is his tête de cuvée, his pride and joy.

Golden yellow color bright and clear. On the nose, the wine is marked with freshness by very distinct aromas of Viognier. Aromas of white flowers, apricot, acacia and white peach. Fruity wine with a lot of fat and wealth. This is a full wine combining elegance, power and balance.

Tasting Colour : garnet red. Nose : aromas of red fruits (mainly morello cherries) and spices (liquorice, grey pepper). Mouth : this wine has a great structure with firm and silky tannins. Lamb chops. Grilled duck fillets. VINTAGE 2014 Grape variety Mainly Grenache and Syrah. Soil The vineyards of the red Côtes du Rhône “Belleruche” covers 4 departments (Drôme, Vaucluse, Gard and Ardèche) on different soils (clay and calcareous alluvial deposit terraces, clay…) giving to the “Belleruche” an extraordinary richness and complexity. Harvest The grapes are harvested at good maturity. Winemaking The grapes are entirely destemmed. Vatting lasts around 15 days and provides a great tannic structure. This allows ageing and guarantees a good stability. Maturing Ageing is performed in vats with regular pumping over in order to clarify the wine. Alcohol degree 13,5%

Perfectly structured, with aromas of ripe summer fruits balanced by rich fruit flavours and hints of pepper and spice, with a long, generous finish: all the hallmarks of classic Rhône. The perfect partner for a hearty beef stew.

Bold red in color with a ruby hue. In the nose, you'll find concentrated aromas of wild cherry and blackberry fruit alongside more exotic flavors of anise, white pepper, cocoa, and fig. Full but firm in texture with a burst of berries and spice on the palate. This wine is an ideal match for juicy roasts, savory stews, and even mom's meatloaf. If there was such a thing as comfort wine, this would be it!

Famille Perrin Reserve Cotes du Rhone Blanc opens with a subtle nose, with hints of white flowers, honeysuckle, and sage. Round and supple in the mouth, this wine reveals beautiful minerality, freshness, and a slight bitterness on the finish. Pair this Blanc alongside delicate or spicy (saffron) dishes, grilled fish, and bouillabaisse.

Les Trois Couronnes Côtes du Rhône is the reflection of its charming village of Provence, named Tulette, impregnated with rich wine history. It is a marriage of three grape varieties, Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah, bringing complexity to this wine.

The Bécassonne cuvée comes from a unique plot, particularly suited for this production of white wine. Clay earth on a calcareous subsoil which all lies on a hill exposed to the rising sun but protected from the burning setting sun by a pine forest, allowing the grapes to fully ripen and to give a floral and exotic character to this wine while preserving a real freshness which is fairly rare for the white Côtes du Rhône Blanc. The cuvée is characterized by hints of floral and exotic fruits.

This rosé has a salmon color with a beautiful shine. With great finesse, Maguellonne is about greedy red fruit aromas with floral notes. We are both surprised by its freshness, minerality and delicacy. A rosé that also stands as an aperitif on a beautiful summer table. 15/20 in the Gault & Millau

Ruby red in colour with enticing aromas of red berry fruits. The palate is round, with subtle flavours of raspberries and other red fruits. The wine is well balanced and the tannins smooth and approachable.

The vines are located in the Commune of St Génies de Comolas (Gard) on a poor sandy soil with lime-clay subsoil. With elegance and finesse in mind, the Grenaches grown there produce a low yield. The rest of the fruit comes from Travaillan in the Vaucluse and are grown on a stony soil with lime subsoil and produce a powerful wine. The vineyards are naturally worked with sustainable practice in mind. The blend is 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 10% old-vine Cinsault. The wine has aromas and flavors of small red berry fruits, blackcurrant and cherries with slight touch of spices.

Crimson red in color with inviting aromas of black cherries and raspberries mixed in with gentler flavors of dried herbs and anise. Sipping the wine reveals layers of mouth-filling dark fruit and spice with a punch of freshness that transforms in a cool, peppery finish.
