What to Expect
Rhone Blends are generally based on Grenache, though some blends may be predominantly Syrah or Mourvedre. The fact that these wines are blends gives the winemakers unusual flexibility in creating a finished wine. In the Southern Rhone Valley of France the styles can range from light, fruity, soft Cotes du Rhone to big, bold, age worthy Chateaunuef-du-pape. This blend is also very popular in Australia and the United States where they frequently go by the Moniker GSM (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre) and exhibit the rich, bold fruit that both countries are famous for.

Reviews Add a Review
Always highly rated by the wine press, get this fantastic 2001 vintage before it's all gone! If any of you are Bordeaux fans who have been priced out the market, give Cupa Numismae a try. It is like a svelte, medium-bodied claret. Well, claret with a bunch of wild Syrah and Mourvedre sticking out here and there. Smooth, rich, and fruity - you really can't go wrong with this gem.
