Pere Anselme La Fiole Côtes du Rhône 2011
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceLa Fiole has a storied history in Canadian monopoly's stores and at times it seems as if it was the only Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the country. This simple Cotes du Rhone rides the La Fiole wave right down to the crooked neck bottle. Look for a soft simple red with sweet red fruits and milk chocolate notes with a modicum of spice and earth. Ready to drink with lighter meat and chicken dishes.Tasted: 16 March 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $19.00 | 750ml |
