Grape

Grenache, Syrah or Shiraz

Origin
Galets are the large pudding stones found in the Rhône valley which help store heat and provide excellent drainage. This Côtes-du-Rhône is blended to provide an accessible, early drinking style without being overly tannic or full bodied.
Taste
Showing gorgeous, succulent notes of red and black berry fruit flavours and a warming hint of spiciness. Soft and supple tannins contribute to a long and rounded finish.
Enjoy
Enjoy as a red to go with canapés or food at parties, or the spicy richness can match a range of red meat dishes.

    Not great

    My favourite wine region is the Rhone. Sorry for the honesty moment.... Taking into account the price and therefore moderating my expectation accordingly this wine still conjures up the words "cheap plonk".

    Good, everyday quaffer

    For the price (especially when on offer) this is a cracking wine - lots of spicy fruit. Yumm.

    Caveat Emptor

    This is usually very palatable for the price. So much so that I recently ordered 8 bottles. Unfortunately, two of those eight were corked. Anyway, a very good wine when you get a "good" one.

    Really good value

    Plenty of smooth, spicy fruit, and lots of flavour for the price. Great everyday quaffing wine.

    Verrrrry Nice

    Super little wine for the money. I am not the type to get into all kinds of effete expressions about 'chocolate' flavour etc. etc. - this wine is one of the few at this price which has that earthy (Sexy??) flavour and aftertaste of a true Cotes du Rhone wine. Go for it!!!
