"The blend of the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape includes 10% Muscardin along with 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre. The wine is aged largely in foudre with a small quantity in small oak. One of the sexiest wines of the vintage, it is atypically evolved and forward. A deep ruby/plum/purple color is followed by notes of spring flowers, forest floor, blueberries and raspberries. Fragrant, medium-bodied and silky smooth"

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.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
