Domaine la Roseliere Cotes du Rhone, 2021

This Cotes du Rhone comes from the Arnaud family who have been making wines in Laudun and Tresque in the Southern Rhone since 1641.

Deep ruby/purple. 50% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 10% Cinsault, 10% Carignane. Mostly dark fruits at the moment: black raspberry, currants, black pepper. More Syrah than Grenache. Medium body, more tannins than I expect from a five-year-old Cotes du Rhone. Probably has seen some new oak and may be more inviting in a few years. Still a good dinner wine and was a good buy at $14.99 on Wines Till Sold Out.
