@Tom Casagrande, is there a particular “village” in the Côtes du Rhône somewhere on the label?? I always thought (but hopelessly old and with a failing memory) that to bear the CdRV AOC, there had to be an identified village?!?!

@Doug Powers - Nope. My understanding is that if it’s from one particular village within the CDRV limits they have the right to do so, but not required. And multi village blends within the limits would be just CDRV.

May 5, 2020. TTW Core +4, supporting local business during the pandemic. This was a nice surprise. Right bank Bordeaux, 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet. Truffle, dark fruit but not much. Smooth tannins, earthy. Wow, just a really nice wine. — 6 years ago

Le Roi Soleil Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

9.4

A wonderful Mount Veeder Cab that has aged elegantly.

The nose shows blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum laced with savory notes of cedar, tobacco and dried herbs. The palate is concentrated yet vibrant with silky tannins has firm grip, finishing long with hints of cocoa and espresso.

Restrained power and finesse, Yannick brought both Veeder’s rugged characters and French precision. Last bottle.
