- Dom Berthet-Rayne Cotes Du Rhone 2011 Product #26037 (In Stock)

Here's an absolutely delicious Cotes du Rhone from the tricky 2011 vintage. Classic aromas of red fruit, spice and garrigue (the resinous herbs growing in the Rhone) lead to a wide open, juicy, palate of ripe red raspberry and cherry fruit plus more spice. About half Grenache (for fruit) with the rest Syrah and Carignan (for structure). Just the right touch of tannin and mineral at the end makes this a great burger bottle!
- Dom Berthet-Rayne Cairanne Castel Mireio Rouge 2009 Product #26036 (In Stock)

Here's a big boy of a 2009 Rhone, already delicious but built to develop for a decade or more. It's a blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre all from the village of Cairanne that gets a 60 day cuvaison and then aged in used oak barrels. Powerful, spicy, red raspberry and black cherry fruit with swirling notes of smoked meat and warm stones over firm, dusty, tannins. An old-school wine with just enough polish and sophistication to make it attractive for modern palates. A winner.
