Romain Duvernay Domaine de la Grand Ribe Cote Du Rhone Rouge
This lovely organic red wine is round and lightly perfumed on the nose with notes of violets, strawberries, currants, and plums. On the palate it is full-bodied, with balanced acidity, rich flavours of cooked strawberries, raspberries, and currants, accompanied by soft and ripe tannins. The finish is long and round with pleasant fruity notes. Great paired with mature cheese, steak, or BBQ.
