Wine-o: Cellier du Rhone


Cellier du Rhone Cotes du Rhone 2009, FRANCE
Alcohol: 14%

When first opened, this wine was very acidic tasting.  However when one waits the recommended hour of airing, it was a beautiful flavor of berries.  Full bodied, I started describing it to the BF as "jammy" a flavor I am loving.

The bottle itself is beautiful green glass with a squared base (perhaps for easier storage?).  It would make a lovely candleholder, especially if you have a candelabra wine topper or lamp wick.

Vintage Notes

Price: ~$18 (estimated as this is hard to find)
Freya Score: 78
Mona Value: 4.4
