Guigal Cotes du Rhone Rouge - 750ML

Deep and dark red, shiny. Fresh fruits with red berries and spices on the nose. The palate is full, round and racy with rounded and smooth tannins. A full-bodied, rich and intensely aromatic wine. Full with a long finish and plenty of elegance and finesse due to the well balanced tannins and fruit.

The blend is 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, and 10% Mourvedre. Complex and deceptively ageworthy, Guigal’s Côtes du Rhône Rouge is one of the world’s greatest wine values.

Guigal ages their Côtes du Rhône Rouge for a full two years (minimum) before release, almost unheard of in the Rhône. This expensive process results in a wine of unusual complexity, with a substantial and generous palate. After a long maceration and fermentation, aging takes place in oak foudres for 18 months.
