Clos d'Alzan 2016, Côtes du Rhône Villages Signargues

The new 2016 vintage of our Côtes du Rhône village Signargues Clos de Alzan has just arrived. It is an exceptional 'Villages' wine from a 10/10 vintage in the Southern Rhône and on tasting it I jotted down 'fabulous fruit, great structure and well-integrated tannins'; need I say more? A fine example of why the Southern Rhône can provide the best value red wine in France.

Tasting note:
A bright mid ruby-purple, the nose is lively and perfumed with plenty of peppery dark fruits. Well structured on the palate with a full and lingering finish, a lovely concentration of floral dark berry flavours.
