Description
In a nutshell:
Rich and ripe, this Côtes du Rhône is packed with dark bramble fruit and a whisper of warm spice, finishing smooth and well-rounded.
The lowdown:
Domaine Boutinot has a knack for finding great parcels of fruit, and this blend from across the 17 Côtes du Rhône Villages is a perfect example. Mostly Grenache with a touch of Syrah, it's seen just a little oak, keeping everything balanced and approachable. Blackberries and hedgerow fruit lead the way, with hints of liquorice and a pinch of black pepper. Medium-bodied yet surprisingly rich, it has a silky texture and a subtle note of dried herbs. A wine that effortlessly captures the character of the southern Rhône.
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:
Great with lamb stew, beef casserole, or a tray of roasted root veg - the rich bramble fruit and hint of spice make it a proper match for cosy, comforting dishes.
Suitable for Vegans
