"This is immediately inviting on the nose with dark plum, toasted spice, assorted nut and cured meat characters, leading to a succulent palate displaying supple texture and generous fruit flavours. The wine is beautifully structured by grainy tannins, finishing robust and persistent. At its best: now to 2029" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Already enjoyable, this robust, firm red, grown near Châteauneuf-du-Pape, is based principally on mature grenache vines, with smaller amounts of syrah and mourvèdre. Made without oak, it is a lively, powerful but not heavy wine, with fresh, ripe, concentrated plum and spice flavours and surprising complexity" Michael Cooper

On the nose, you'll find inviting aromas of ripe red fruits, spices, thyme, and licorice. The palate reveals a balance of warmth and ripe fruitiness, with silky tannins and a long, spicy finish that adds depth and sophistication. Whether enjoyed now or aged for a few years, Domaine Les Cassanets offers a taste of Châteauneuf-du-Pape prestige at an accessible price point.

The Domaine Les Cassanets Côtes du Rhône 2021 is a remarkable gem that captures the essence of its prestigious surroundings while offering exceptional value. Situated just meters from the renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyards, this wine benefits from the same 'Galet' stone soils and expert craftsmanship that characterize the region's finest wines. The blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre combines power, richness, and structure, resulting in a complex and elegant profile.

Domaine Les Cassanets offers the quality of Châteauneuf-du-Pape at a fraction of the price, thanks to its unique location just outside the prestigious region and the expertise of winemaker Thierry Ferlay. Consistently earning Gold medals since its acclaimed 2009 debut, this Côtes du Rhône showcases the same high standards and attention to detail as its esteemed neighbors. A masterful blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre delivers a wine with bold red fruit, spicy notes, and a silky texture, making it a versatile choice for pairing with hearty dishes.

Food Pairing: Exceptionally well-made and harmonious, this wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, game, or a hearty cassoulet.
