Reserve de la Ronciere Cotes-du-Rhone Cuvee Traditionelle is a beautiful red wine gem of 85% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and 5% Mourvedre from vineyards in the southern Rhone Valley near Avignon. For three generations Domaine de la Roncière, on the south-facing slopes of the stony hills of the Rhone Valley, has been run by the Canto family. Luis Canto moved to Chateauneuf-du-Pape from Spain in 1948 and bought the vineyard from its original owners in 1958. Grandfather, father and son all live together at the Domaine, which includes 27 acres in Chateauneuf, 35 acres of Cotes du Rhone, and another 13 classified as IGP. Today the vineyards are managed according to biodynamic principles, now certified by Agriculture Biologique.
Reserve de la Ronciere is a robust, earthy Cotes du Rhone with aromas of Provencal herbs and licorice. It is round on the palate, full-bodied, ripe, and packed with rich black cherry fruit and peppery notes. Long and rich on the finish.
Enjoy Reserve de la Ronciere Cotes-du-Rhone with lamb chops, skirt steak, burgers and grilled vegetables.
