A delightful Cotes du Rhone, on a special occasion

We had this “Tentation de Rodolf” Cotes du Rhone wine for our wonderful, memorable lunch on our 20th anniversary, at Le Table Gourmande Le Mogador, between Sablet and Violes. What a magnificent experience, with our gracious hostess Dominique. We loved this wine so much that we came back the next day and bought two more bottles.

Bottled by Le Domaine des Favards, this wine was a beautiful deep purple color, expressing black fruit, notes of spice, vanilla and chocolate, with just a hint of oak. Rich, elegant and creamy on the palate, with silky tannins. Finish is full, round, and lasting.
