Paul Jaboulet Aîné Côtes du Rhône Villages Plan de Dieu De Père en Filles 2014
Côtes du Rhône, Rhone Valley, FranceThings are changing at Jaboulet. Cellar and vineyard improvements are beginning to show up in wines such as Plan de Dieu, one of several Côtes du Rhône Villages that sits nearby Gigondas and Vacqueyras. The 80/10/10 mix of grenache, syrah and mourvèdre is gentle and polished with silky tannins and lovely black, peppery, juicy fruits with a mineral, stony savoury undercurrent. The high fruit content makes it a match for pork or even spicy curries.Tasted: 22 December 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $36.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
