Reviews and Ratings

Malcolm rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Light to medium bodied, this blend of grenache, syrah and mouvedre, has good acidity coupled with medium tannins. Fruity on the nose and palate with cherry, spice and pepper notes. A good, inexpensive Cote du Rhone that pairs well with lamb, or casual fare like burgers or pizza.
Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Light to medium-bodied. Earthy and spicy with a little pepper, herbs, cherry, blackberry, cigar box and hint of caramel. Good value French wine at $14.95. Pairing suggestion: roast pork, braised rabbit, roast duck.
Not overly tannic. Drink now.
Mark Britton rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

The 2010 release formerly knows as Perrin & Fils Cotes Du Rhone, is lacking compared to its predecessor. Some pepper & spice with a bit of black cherry, but lacking the complexity and smoothness of years past.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
