Cellier des Dauphins - Cotes du Rhone, 2006

A combination of Syrah and Grenache blended in the summer sun at the end of the Rhone. An initially fruity aroma, then becomes earthy and slightly musty. The taste is one of blackberries with some tannins and a slightly acidic after taste. Overall quite palletable.

In my mind its unmistakeably French. Ideal if you are sitting three inches off the ground in a camping chair, waiting for the old guys in the tent across the way to down their Pernod and continue the boules tourney. Equally well suited if you are just thinking about planning your holiday too!
