Description
In a nutshell:
From the Côte du Rhône village of Cairanne, this is packed with brambly fruits, a sprinkle of Mediterranean herbs, and a touch of black pepper, all wrapped up in a smooth finish.
The lowdown:
Cairanne is one of the Côtes du Rhône villages that can put its name on the label and generally delivers that extra bit of structure and balance than a regular issue Rhône red. This blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre shows off the intensity of cru vineyards, with careful winemaking and a touch of oak ageing making all the difference. Rich and full of dark red fruits, theres morello cherry and a hint of cinnamon spice on the nose, while the palate brings dark plum, liquorice, chocolate, and a subtle hint of black tea. Smooth and full-flavoured, with soft tannins, it's complex, satisfying, and effortlessly elegant.
The Producer:
Domaine Boutinot Rhône isn't your classic wine estate with generations of gnarled vines and weathered chateaux. Founded by the ever-energetic Paul Boutinot, they've got a knack for sniffing out exceptional plots, collaborating with local growers, and coaxing top-notch wines out of classic appellations. Their philosophy hinges on finding the sweet spot - wines that capture the soul of the Rhône with its sun-soaked fruit and peppery spice, but with a finesse that makes them more than just gulpable crowd-pleasers. They're masters of blending, weaving together different villages and grape varieties to create wines of surprising depth and complexity. They might not have the centuries-old pedigree, but they've got more than enough energy and expertise to make up for it.
When to drink:
Rich and savoury, it's a great match for slow-roast lamb, herb-crusted pork, or even a lamb tagine - comforting dishes that play perfectly with its bold flavours and herby vibes.
Suitable for Vegans
