Tasting - Charles thomas


Name: Charles Thomas

Variety: Cotes du Rhone

Region: Rhone

Country: France

Year: 2013

Price: $8.95

Shop/wine critic/winery review: 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre. 56 Ha grown organically since March 2009 (in conversion). Part of the vineyard is plowed with horses. Average age of the vines : 30 years old. Clear ruby wine with overtones of red berry fruits. Round and supple with smooth aftertaste. A good all round red wine for meat courses, poultry and light cheeses. Best drunk now while fresh with good keeping up to 4 years.

My review:  This wine has tons of berry hints when smelling it, definitely cherries.  This wine was kind of sweet and had a very cool color.  I did not try this wine with any food.
