Domaine de la Renjarde, Cote du Rhone Villages 2002

Many thanks for asking me to sample and taste Domaine de la Renjarde.
My review is as follows:-
I could pick out the plums and spices on the nose. It was a nicely integrated wine with a velvety texture - the tannins were very smooth. It was reminiscent of chateauneuf du pape - hardly surprising considering the similar grape variieties! Somehow it felt rustic without any rough edges.
It would be ideal as an accompaniment with winter dishes such as with beef casseroles and grilled meats.
Altogether a very pleasing and drinkable glass of wine.
