"The 2007 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Rubis is mostly tank-aged Grenache with 20% Mourvedre and 15% Syrah (the latter component is kept in old barrels). A blend of declassified fruit from Rasteau mixed with other Cotes du Rhone-Villages material, the 2007 exhibits a dark ruby/purple color, medium to full body, and notes of licorice, smoked herbs, earth, pepper, lavender, black cherries, and black currants."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
