Community Tasting Notes (average 90 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 1 note) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Loren Sonkin on 4/19/2016 & rated 90 points: HdR Lunch #2 (Hospices du Rhone): This was very nice. Going back to it much later, it had opened nicely. Also had Pierre Gaillard's name on the label. Good cherry and dark cherry fruit. Nice balnce. Lighter wine, this was served cold and it was refreshing. Better after it warmed up a bit. (1119 views)

Red Rhone Blend

Read about the different grapes used to produce red and white Rhone wines
On CellarTracker, Red Rhone Blend is the term for a wine consisting of two or more of the traditional 13 Southern Rhone grape varieties. Typically it's the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre or Cinsault grapes, but can also contain the Muscardin, Counoise, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul, Roussanne, Terret Noir, Picardan or Vaccarese grapes.

A 'food' wine. Lacking pretension and intended for local consumption with local cuisine. Lacks the 'high' notes on a Bordeaux, more earthy and sharper so often a better partner to meat dishes with a sauce.
