Mont-Redon Reserve Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2021
The Mont-Redon Réserve Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2021 is a beautifully balanced and approachable red wine from the prestigious Château Mont-Redon estate, one of the Rhône Valley’s most respected producers. Crafted from a blend of classic Southern Rhône grape varieties such as Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, this wine embodies the richness, fruit-forward nature, and spice typical of the region. The 2021 vintage, with its cooler growing conditions, resulted in a wine with freshness, vibrancy, and great drinkability.
Appearance: Deep ruby red with purple hues, reflecting its youthful energy and depth of fruit.
Aroma: The nose is inviting and aromatic, offering red and black fruit aromas such as cherry, raspberry, and blackberry. There are also hints of spice, particularly black pepper and cinnamon, alongside subtle earthy notes of garrigue (herbs like thyme and rosemary), and a touch of licorice and leather, adding complexity to the bouquet.
Taste: On the palate, this Côtes du Rhône Rouge is medium-bodied with soft, silky tannins. Flavours of ripe red and dark berries, such as cherry, plum, and blackberry, are complemented by spice notes, including black pepper and clove. The wine’s earthy undertones and herbal character give it a distinct Rhône personality, while a bright acidity adds freshness and balance. The fruit is vibrant, yet the wine has a lovely roundness and texture, making it both easy-drinking and elegant.
Finish: The finish is long and smooth, with lingering notes of red fruit, spice, and a touch of earthiness, leaving a harmonious and pleasant aftertaste.
Food pairing: This Côtes du Rhône Rouge pairs wonderfully with grilled meats such as lamb, pork, or beef, as well as roasted vegetables and Mediterranean dishes rich in herbs and spices. It also works well with charcuterie, hard cheeses like Comté or aged Gouda, and classic bistro fare like coq au vin or ratatouille. Perfect for casual dining or gatherings, offering versatility and charm with every sip.
