Description

"The 2015 Côtes du Rhône Gabriel Meffre Saint Vincent is a peppery, spice-driven and forward effort that offers medium-bodied richness and tons of sweet fruit. It’s a no-brainer value to drink over the coming couple of years. The quality from this large estate in Gigondas continues to soar, and these latest releases are packed with quality wines and terrific values." Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2016

"A lovely example of Cotes du Rhone, the beautifully perfumed bouquet shows dark plum, blueberry, floral and roasted nut characters with subtle game complexity. The palate is succulent and rounded, and displays excellent mid palate weight and fruit intensity, nicely structured by supple tannins. At its best: now to 2019." Sam Kim Wine Orbit

This Cotes du Rhone is a blend of Grenache and Syrah grapes from clayey limestone soils from the north of Vaucluse and Gard. With a Southern French climate renowned for its contrasts, the vineyard endures the summer heat and Mistral wind. Crimson robe with purple nuances. The nose is seductive with hints of cherries and spices. The palate is elegant, round with a spicy finish. For everyday meals with cooked meats, grilled meat and strong cheese.

Gabriel Meffre Winery established its roots at the foot of the majestic Dentelles de Montmirail mountains in Gigondas, the heart of the Southern Rhône Valley.
Almost 80 years later, the family business has built on its strong foundations and has established its reputation as a leading Winery in the southern Rhone Valley, with the complementary know-how linked to being both ‘Négociant-Eleveur’ and Producer, recognised for the quality of its wines.
