Name: Domaine de Grange de PayanVariety: Grenache
Region: Cotes du Rhone
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95
Winery Review: Intensely spicy and precise, with lively red berry flavors and a hint of black pepper. The Grenache, which makes up the majority of the wine, is deeper and more powerful, offering cherry and black raspberry qualities lifted by zesty minerality.
My Review: I have always been a big fan of Cotes du Rhone. It was the last wine I drank before studying abroad for 4 months so I was determined to find a great Cotes du Rhone while I was in Europe. The color is really fascinating on this wine. A golden, bronze color on the edges. It really is a typical Cotes du Rhone. Lots of berries right away with mild tannins and a kick of spice on the finish.
I did not eat while tasting this wine.
