winemaker's notes:

Blend: 70% Grenache, 20% Cinsault, 10% Syrah

The style of Château Mont-Redon Côtes-du-Rhône is one expressive of its "terroir," and vinified to exhibit deep, clean, intense fruit, soft, balanced tannins and early approachability. Deep violet red in color, the wine shows aromas of dark berries and raspberries which are confirmed on the full, succulent palate. These are offset by slight grilled notes and nuances of licorice, which carry into the persistent finish.

"As meaty and mouthwatering as a great steak, this is chewy with concentrated fruit, deep minality and considerable tannins providing a powerful backbone. At this price, buy a case to drink over the next 5 years."

I would not buy this wine again

Too thin. Did not live up to the wine review. Too much fruit vs. earth.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
