Sol' Acantalys Cotes du Rhone





Sol' Acantalys Cotes du Rhone
Variety: Red Rhone Blend
Region: Bouteille a la propriete
Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $12


Winery review: A beautiful ruby red wine.  Very fragrant, with aromas of red fruit (currant, strawberry, and cherry) with hints of black pepper and cinnamon.  Medium bodied and silky in the mouth with mature, round tannins.  Enjoy with meats, grilled vegetables or cheese.  


My review:  I found this wine to be very smooth. The acidity of the wine however did not work well with my tastes. I was not able to taste this wine with food and would not expect it to go well with food. The peppery hint of taste was unusual.
