Vidal-Fleury
Ventoux
| The Ventoux rouge is predominantly a blend of 60% Syrah and 30% Grenache and originates from sloping vineyards that lie at up to 500 metres above sea level. Vidal Fleury was founded in 1781 and is the oldest wine house in the Rhône. From their base amongst the Cote Rotie vineyards they make a full range of wines from across the whole Rhône Valley. | |

| Tasting note |
Full dark red colour with some black highlights. Syrah dominated with blueberry, cranberry, sherry, violet and a hint of spice (cumin). On the palate, a full bodied wine with black fruits and scrubland aromas. Good tannins and chewiness on the finish.

Daily Mail, Matthew Jukes, 29th November 2014'...Yet another magnificent and incredibly good value wine, this is made from a terrific, black fruit-stuffed blend of Syrah and Grenache. It really does put entry-level Chateauneuf-du-Pape (costing £15) to shame...' |
