Bonpas Cotes du Rhone Villages Plan de Dieu
Grenache was made famous for its role in the great blended wines of the Southern Rhone. And its no understatement to say its been used as something of a bit part actor playing second fiddle to the limelight-hogging big names like shiraz. But those who know wine know Grenache is capable of being a superstar in its own right. In Australia, where some of the oldest Grenache vines in the world are found, its enjoying a well-deserved resurgence. Winemakers are treating this somewhat overlooked wine with greater respect, producing spicier, prettier expressions or creating juicy blends that pay tribute to the classic wines of the Rhone Valley. Looking for charming wine? Look no further than this rising star Bonpas Cotes du Rhone Villages. The bouquet is complex and generous with notes of blackcurrant and spices. The palate is rich and dynamic with lovely flavors of black fruit and sweet spices with a very long finish.
