Wow, this is super-expressive on the nose, with a floral, aromatic fragrance from the 15% Viognier, as well as fleshy black fruits and a hint of iodine. Domaine Cuilleron is a leading light in the Rhône Valley and makes this wine from vines planted on granitic soils within the IGP Collines Rhodaniennes. The wine spends eight months in barrique before bottling. Great value everyday alternative to more prestigious, northern Rhône appellations.
