About the wine
Vibrant Syrah and Grenache blend from the heart of France's Rhône Valley
- This rich, juicy red captures the character of this famous French valley, packed with bright red fruit flavors and wrapped up with a touch of toasty oak spice. There’s no place like Rhône!
- Your funding helped Ben craft this Angel-exclusive blend of Syrah and Grenache from his choice of Rhône Valley vineyards, where these two iconic red varieties grow best.
- There’s Côtes du Rhône – then there’s Côtes du Rhône Plus! To put that extra bit of finesse on this already refined red, Ben aged it for an additional 8 months in oak barrels. Now it’s yours to savor!
Best before
This red will age well for the next 2 to 5 years.
Serving advice
Serve this red blend at around 60º F and if possible, give it some time to open up and breathe before serving.
