Region

Costiere de Nimes, Rhone, France

Vintage:

2022

Producer:

Chateau L'Ermitage

Grapes:

Grenache/Garnacha, Syrah/Shiraz, Mourvedre/Monastrell

Wine Description:

Intense, bright and ripe raspberry Grenache fruit balanced by peppery, savoury characters from the Syrah and Mourvèdre. Generous but properly balanced and underpinned with smooth, ripe tannins.

Tasting Note:

Giving wild thyme on the nose this dark, full-bodied wine has lots of red ripe fruit, sweet liquorice and roasted coffee flavours and peppery, savoury characters from the Syrah and Mourvèdre. Underpinned by chalky tannins the 2016 is less rustic than in some years and just as appealing.
