It is very concentrated for a Cotes du Rhone, and is actually an amazing wine. Classic garrigue, black cherry liqueur, lavender, licorice and spice box are all present in this full-bodied, intense, and rich Cotes du Rhone that sells for a song. This is a sensational effort to drink over the next 4-5 years, although it might last even longer.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"style25\"\u003e\r\n\t-\u003cspan class=\"style25\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan class=\"style2\"\u003eWine Advocate (June 2011),\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e 91 pts  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"style25\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e\"The 2010 Cotes du Rhone Reserve (a blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Cinsault, with nearly 10,000 cases imported) is outstanding. Dense purple, with notes of roasted meats, black raspberries, blackberries, licorice and lavender, this wine is just terrific. Medium to full-bodied, rich and certainly far deeper and more concentrated than one has any reason to expect from a wine that sells for $15 (the taste is more like one for $35 to $50), this is a winner that will drink well for 4-5 years.\"\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t-\u003cu\u003eWine Advocate (Issue 201, June 2012)\u003c\/u\u003e, \u003cb\u003e90 pts BEST BUY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grand Veneur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948745453615,"sku":"F0EE137124GRM","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/gdveneur_CDR.jpg?v=1771483088","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/grand-veneur-cotes-du-rhone-rouge-reserve-2010","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
