Blend of six varietals: Grenache Noir (~50%), Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, Counoise and Carignan Noir from slopes above the village of Cairanne with chalky clay soil and old vines. Manual harvest and sorting. Fermentation in large 6,000 L tronconique oak vats by natural yeasts with manual plunging and gentle pump-over. Aged ~12 months in the same oak vats. Bottled at Domaine Boutinot’s cellars in Cairanne. 14.5% Abv. Background: Boutinot Wines started by Paul Boutinot in 1980 is one of the leading UK-based distributors of wines worldwide. Managing Director: Dennis Whiteley Domaine Boutinot Rhône with the motto "Fide et Arte" (Trust and Skill) has vineyards and winery in Cairanne. Founding Winemaker: Eric Monnin Winemaker: Julien Dugas
A(ccuracy)=2: Deep ruby/purple. Spicy juicy Rhone blend. B(alance)=2: Ripe fruit with adequate structure. C(omplexity)=2: Black and red fruits, pepper, mild garrigue. D(epth)=2: Plush mouthfeel. Full length and finish.
Wine Tally Score [2,2,2,2] = 8/10
Sharp and pungent on opening. Succulent and savory with 12-hr breathing!
