The Wine
Rich, ripe and complex, this benchmark Côtes du Rhône is from the cellars of the Chapoutier family, Chapoutier being one of the most highly regarded names in the French wine world.

This is a velvety red with concentrated forest fruits, ideal served with roast meats, duck cassoulet or vegetable kebabs.
