Our traditional Côtes du Rhône has a beautiful ruby red, brilliant and limpid, with purplish reflections on the 1st year.

On the palate, the Côtes du Rhône Domaine de Tout Vent Tradition offers a clear balance between suppleness and freshness, melted tannins and a warm alcohol.

CHARACTERISTICS

The young wines have a full red colour with a purplish shimmer, and acquire an orange glimmer with age.
On the nose, we discover very ripe fruits like blackcurrent and mulberry in the young wines, which evolves with time towards dried fruits and preserved fruits like cherries, as well as kirsch and leather.
In the mouth, there is a roundness, supple tannins and a rather warm alcohol sensation. This is an easy drinking wine, good example of Côtes du Rhône wines.

WINE AND FOOD

Special features of this wine are the following :
- fruity aromas ( grenache, cinsault and carignan) spices (grenache, syrah, mourvèdre)
- a nice freshness (cinsault and carignan) and good structure (syrah, mourvèdre)
- a warm alcohol and roundness ( grenache).
That’s why we can imagine nice matching with courses made from ingredients like white or red meat, pepper, Provence herbs, black olives. As vegetable we can cook italian preserved tomatoes, zucchini, grilled onions, mushrooms...in short, all the ingredients that are used in a real mediterranean way of cooking!!
