Famille Perrin - Côtes du Rhône - Réserve - Rouge - 2021

Wine:

The intense 2021 Red Cotes du Rhone Reserve is bursting with attractive notes of black fruit, notably blackberry, and well-developed tannins. It's a very dense wine, with a lovely palate, still young but with real potential. A fine success underlined by aromas of violets, a wine of great caliber that can be drunk young but will progress within 2 years. Pair with red meats, such as daube.

Vinification:

Hand harvested. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Extractions by regular pumping-over. Aged in wood and stainless steel vats for 1 year.

Color:

Intense, brilliant garnet red.

Nose:

Discreet, with aromas of small red and black berries.

Palate:

Dense and fruity, this wine delivers notes of black fruits and blackberries on a pleasant, delicate mid-palate. A delicate finish with floral violet accents.

Temperature:

Serve between 14 and 16°C.

Daube de boeuf à la provençale, hamburger with pulled pork, traditional lamb moussaka.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2027
