Perrin et Fils Reserve Cotes du Rhone Rouge 2004
Rhone Red Blends
from Cotes du Rhone, Rhone, France
winemaker's notes:
Jean Pierre and Francois Perrin have taken particular care that this Cotes du Rhone meets their stringent standards of excellence. As proprietors of Chateau de Beaucastel in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, the Perrin family has demonstrated exceptionally high standards for nearly a century.
The Rouge originates from a significant portion of the Perrin's own vineyards, including those at Château Grand Prebois. Produced from 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre, some of which are flash-heated using the same methods as those at Château de Beaucastel, the fruit is rich and jammy with peppery spice, concentration and intensity.

This is a great first date wine! It is bold on the nose and initially satisfies the palate but disappears somewhere in the middle of your mouth, but then comes back for a good finish. It may be considered opaque to some, but perfect for the girlfriend that is new to reds, or for the girl that says, "i love the smell of coffee- but i hate how it tastes..." she will love this wine, and it's easy on the stomach and wallet!

I,have never been a big fan of wines, I first tried this in a restaurant and then ordered a case. Addictive flavor, great wine for the price, this is a must try.
