Community Tasting Notes

 Tasted by PeterMole on 4/16/2001: in de loop van de wintermaanden; nu goed op dronk, maar niet het fruitige van de 96, allicht. (2877 views)
 Tasted by PeterMole on 12/11/2000: nu goed op dronk, maar mist het fruit van de 96er. Wel een vollediger wijn, maar dus minder lollig. (2931 views)
 Tasted by PeterMole on 9/1/2000: Na openen echt hard, misschien nog wel meer dan vorige keren. Na een nacht vacuvin veel beter en mooi rond, tenminste na een tijdje in het glas. Dus echt laten liggen tot 2001. (2938 views)
 Tasted by PeterMole on 2/19/2000: fruitig, niet teveel boddy, maar wel behoorlijk veel tannines. Wordt in de loop van 1-2 jaar veel soepeler, denk ik. (2908 views)
 Tasted by PeterMole on 1/27/2000: Heel anders dan de 1996. Duidelijke tannines. Mooi fruit. Misschien nog te jong? (2908 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.
