Description

This is the top cuvee from the brilliant Pesquie estate in the Rhone Valley. 80% Syrah and 20% old vine Grenache, the blend is aged for 12 to 18 months in French oak, 40% of which is new. This rich and silky wine can age happily for 10 years and is a consistent favourite of Robert Parker. This was an exceptionally fine year all over the Rhone valley and the wines are already delicious but the best will repay cellaring for longer...if you can resist their charms.

Raspberry jam in a bottle

Intense, full-bodied raspberry jam in a bottle. Well, the flavours are more complex than that, but I'm not so good at identifying and labelling them. This paired beautifully with a cassoulet.
