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.

Winemakers Notes

This full-bodied and fruity wine comes from vines grown high on the slopes of Mount Ventoux, one of the best vineyards in the Rhône Valley.

It has been meticulously selected and blended by Perrin family, who also produce one of France's most acclaimed wines : Château de Beaucastel.

The blend of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan and Cinsault grapes has produced a typical Rhône Valley style: full of ruit and sprice aromas,it has soft tannins and good body.

A delicious wine for easy drinking.
