Famille Perrin - Côtes du Rhône - Reserve - Rouge

Famille Perrin is a renowned producer of wines in the Rhône Valley, with a history dating back to the early 20th century. The Côtes du Rhône Reserve is a classic example of the region's winemaking traditions, with a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes that are carefully selected and hand-harvested. The grapes are grown on the family's vineyards, which are located in the southern Rhône Valley, where the warm Mediterranean climate and stony soils provide ideal growing conditions. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks, and then aged in oak barrels for up to 12 months, which adds complexity and depth to the wine. The Côtes du Rhône Reserve is a rich and full-bodied wine, with aromas of dark fruit, spice, and herbs. On the palate, it is smooth and velvety, with flavors of blackberry, plum, and black pepper. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, giving the wine a long and satisfying finish. This wine is perfect for pairing with hearty meat dishes, such as roast beef or lamb, as well as with strong cheeses like Roquefort or Gorgonzola. It is also a great wine to enjoy on its own, as a special treat at the end of a long day. Overall, the Côtes du Rhône Reserve from Famille Perrin is a classic example of the region's winemaking traditions, and a testament to the family's commitment to producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Rhône Valley.
