  It’s no secret that I’m a fan of Tardieu Laurent. As a large Rhône négociant their range is huge and varies massively in quality but at the top end they offer superb wines at unbelievably good value. So I was hopeful for this, the Côtes du Rhône at the bottom of their range from a decent vintage with some bottle age. On the nose it fairly alcoholic with black cherry, plum and vanilla. The palate is flaccid, flabby and unbalanced with hot black fruit and ethanol. This, sadly, is cooking wine at best.

  cheers - amazing that I found a bottle of this CRD in my cellar and it was delicious....the "drink by" date on this was 2014, and that was a mistake, as this wine is drinking better than ever.....wish I had more, and for the price, an incredible value....2010 was amazing, and this little CDR proved that again

  Renk lal kırmızı. İlk burun kırmızı meyveler, sütlü çikolata. Çevirince biçilmiş çimen ve tatlı kokular, yer yer bitterlik. Olgun kavun kokusu. Damakta ipeksi tanenler. Asidite meyvemsilik yeterli ve dengede ancak alkol sırıtıyor. Hafif vanilya nüasnları ve damakta da bitterlik. Orta üst gövdeli. Orta üst bitiminde alkolün yakıcılığı kalıyor.
