Chateau Des Tours, Cotes du Rhone Rouge Reserve 2009 750ML SPSpain615MAR intensely perfumed Châteauneuf-du-Pape marries tension(65% grenache, 20% syrah and 15% cinsault): Deep red. A powerful, deeply scented bouquet evokes red and dark berries, star anise, cinnamon and pungent flowers. Packs a serious punch but there's no excess fat here; the intense raspberry and blackberry flavors show excellent clarity and a hint of candied lavender. Finishes bright and precise, with the raspberry and floral notes carrying through. This wine transcends its category and will appeal greatly
