Tasting note

Barrel sample. Rather animal/autumn mulch nose. Sweet polished start but underneath it's a pretty rough diamond (though more polished than the average Rasteau). Very clean finish. Score - 16.5 (out of 20 (Distinguished)). (Jancis Robinson, MW, jancisrobinson.com, Jan. 1, 2014)

Colour: Deep red. Nose: Ripe Grenache, roasted red fruit, vanilla, and pepper Taste: Soft and heady, black fruit, cocoa, great texture and a dense finish Pairing: Our Rasteau L'Andeol is a delightful wine that will pair well with traditional hearty cuisine.

This impressive wine shows exotic, heady aromas of dark berry, tobacco and spice. The beautifully textured and mouth-watering palate is packed with mocha and ripe black fruits.
