The Wine
Our Buyers are always on the hunt for a bargain. Rhône aficionado Hilario Ribeiro first tasted this wine by chance in London and made it a priority to track down the producer to see if he could purchase a parcel for customers. Finally he managed to find the winemaker, Patrice Cosrand, who had previously only sold his wines locally. However, after a stream of Gold medal successes he was keen to give his wines a little international exposure. And that means you can enjoy this glorious red today. It’s the classic southern Rhône blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, which gives a rich, peppery wine with lots of red fruit. Though you can enjoy this solo, Patrice suggests serving with grilled lamb and dishes with garlicky tomato sauce.
"Delighted to bring you this new release Rhône red – irresistible richness and ripe rounded fruit"
