Tasting Delaroche Cotes du Rhone 2011


 Name: Anne Delaroche
 Variety: Cotes Du Rhone
 Region: Rhone Valley
 Country: France
 Year: 2011
 Price: $8.95
 Shop/wine critic/winery review: "This semi-opaque ruby, custom cuvée of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre is made specifically for Fran Kysela. It exhibits very fresh, ripe dark red fruit with very good palate weight and depth and ends with rich fruit notes. Made from organically grown grapes. Incredible value. I-WineReview (December 2013)." 
 My review: This red wine looks very dark and smells very strong of the tannis. This wine tastes like a mixture of a lot of variety of grapes, it has sort of a mixed taste to it. It is bitter and full of fruit taste all at the same time. The aftertaste of this wine is a little too strong for me, but overall it is fairly good wine. 
 I had this wine at a wine tasting and did not had food with it.
