In a few words ...
The nose is very open and immediately offers great complexity. On opening, fruity aromas dominate, reminiscent of wild blackberry, candied cherry and crushed strawberry. Then, with aeration, complexity takes over, with sweet spices combining with scents of garrigue, black olives and cocoa beans. This wine displays a beautiful duality between the sweet, almost docile spirit, and the strength and full-bodied character that follow with aeration.
"Very Provençal notes of olive paste on the nose are followed on the palate by aromas of garrigue and laurel. Licorice lingers on the finish. A wine of character."

DOMAINE DE L’ESPIGOUETTE

Appellation
Rasteau
The appellation Rasteau is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine De L’Espigouette and its 3 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
