Chateau Mont Redon Cotes-du-Rhone 2005
Rhone Red Blends
from Cotes du Rhone, Rhone, France
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."

Maybe better in a couple of years?
very nice. A solid 3 star wine, but with the great price factored in, definitely a 4.
Too thin. Did not live up to the wine review. Too much fruit vs. earth.
A nice rhone that won't break the bank.
