Maison Plantevin Cotes du Rhone

Fantastic new Rhône find. Grenache and Syrah predominate in this cuvee, with just 10% each of Carignan and Cinsault. All grapes are hand harvested at this family run estate, and fermentation is natural. The resultant unoaked wine is all about pure fruit enjoyment, and it’s guaranteed!

• Featured by Brian Eliot, the Daily Record, “Perhaps because of its organic origins, this just oozes authenticity and the feeling that classy Rhône reds seem to convey. Its dash of Carignan adds something attractive while the lack of oaking allows the fruit components to shine through brightly. Soft with spicy and smoky aromas, it brings us smooth cherry, dried plum and black pepper flavours coupled with muted tannin, enlivening acidity and suggestions of cinnamon and juniper.” (2023 vintage)
