Cotes-du-Rhône Blanc “Taparas”

From ANTOINE MAROIS Orange color. Hints of spices and undergrowth.  Rich and full in the mouth with a nice bitterness. ABV 6%

From CANTINARTE The inky deepness of the ruby color concedes just a purplish rim, opening into a very intense nose with brisk mineral notes of pencil lead, dark fruits and blackberry with slightly balsamic nuances in the background. The palate attack is always very soft and caressing thanks to the sweet tannins.

From NOAH RIVER Ruby in color. Big, floral nose of dark cherry, fig, and Asian spice. Secondary notes of blackberry, mint, and pekoe tea. Medium bodied flavors of dark cherry cola, red raspberry, and tea. Wonderful finish of red plum and baker’s chocolate.

From PADRó & CO. Soft caramel in colour with shades of amber. Balsamic notes, aniseed and mountain herbs appear in the aromas. When shaken, aromas of spices emerge, such as vanilla and cloves, acquired during the resting period in wood. Caramel-like essence with candied fruits. In the mouth, initially warm and enveloping giving way to a blend of refreshing and elegant tanginess and a soft and velvety sweetness.   ABV 15%

From KIVELSTADT CELLARS Aromas of vermouth, orange blossom, and green tea. On the palate there is a slight bitterness from the skin contact fermentation which is pulled to the finish by the acidity.

From SIMONE SCALETTA Red ruby brilliant color with violet reflections, it opens to the nose with fresh and fruity perfumes of blueberry and violet with velvet notes of almond. In the mouth it expresses harmony and pleasantness, with an almond note in the end. 90 pts Wine Enthusiast
