French Red Rhone

Decanter Magazine ReviewRated 90Deep red cherry and spiced berry notes on the nose. This has a nice mouthfeel where the soft tannins subtly coat the mouth. There's spice and soft, chewy, jammy fruit on the palate. It's not overly layered but it's...

Wine Spectator ReviewRated 95Fresh and ripe, with a delicious mix of blueberry, blackberry and cherry fruit flavors that is carried by juicy acidity and backed by fruitcake, floral and iron notes through the finish. This has detail and length, with the...

Jeb Dunnuck ReviewRated 90Almost all Syrah (there's a splash of Grenache), the 2019 Côtes Du Rhône Domaine D'Andézon reveals a dense purple color as well as ripe plum and blackberry fruits intermixed with notes of bacon fat, ground pepper, and garrigue...

Wine Tasting NotesBeautiful deep red color with purple hues. The wine is clear and bright. The nose is very open, expressive. Black fruit nose first and sweet spices. The second nose is even sweeter with blackberry jellies notes that give a lot of greed...

Wine Spectator ReviewRated 95This bursts forth with delicious crushed plum, cherry puree and raspberry coulis notes that stretch out slowly through the lengthy, anise- and black tea–infused finish. Not shy with its fruit, but this has more than enough...

Wine Advocate ReviewRated 95As I stated last year, there is no Hommage a Jacques Perrin in 2006, but Beaucastel's 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape is performing even better from bottle than it did last year. Its dense plum/ruby/purple color is followed by a big,...

Jeb Dunnuck ReviewRated 92The 2017 Côte Rôtie Brune Et Blonde showed beautifully. It has the sunny, sexy style of the vintage in its kirsch and black raspberry fruits as well as plenty of spiced meats, dried flowers, and incense-like aromas and flavors...

Jeb Dunnuck ReviewRated 96A challenging year for the appellation, the 2018 Chateauneuf Du Pape is a Mourvedre dominated release that's put together by California superstar Manfred Krankl and the incredible team at Clos Saint Jean. Released only in magnum...

Wine Advocate ReviewRated 89-91Another impressive red is the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Reine Jeanne, which has lots of strawberry, sappy flowers and spice in a full-bodied, nicely concentrated, elegant style. It's not a blockbuster, but has fine, polished...
