Fantastic introduction to the wines of Rhone Valley. From the spice of the Syrah to the softness fruit of the Grenache to the perfumed aromas of Viognier, this is a great selection for winter warming wines or for a rack of lamb on the BBQ this summer.

Domaine de Montine - Secret de Terroir
Rhone, France
1 x 75cl Bottle
Its fresh and bright color reminds us of young but ripe blackcurrant, with nice violet hints. The first nose is surprising, with a very fresh and crunchy attack, just like a well ripe pomegranate. After airing it becomes more and more pleasant, and more typical from the Domaine's southern appellation. The end of the palate reveals the full-bodied and intense character, soft tannins liven it up, it has nicely opened up.

Lirac is quite a special Cru. In general, the wines are softer than its peers. Here, it’s all about the finesse and the fruit of Grenache.
Deep crimson in colour, with notes of strawberries and blackberries. On the palate, the wine has a velvety mouthfeel and fresh acidity. Redcurrant flavours continue through the mouth-watering finish.
