If you're looking for a wine that is both sophisticated and approachable, Domaine Les Cassanets Cotes Du Rhone 2021 is an excellent choice.
Aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, and a hint of vanilla along with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a subtle hint of oak on the pallet.
The tannins are firm, but not overpowering, and the acidity is perfectly balanced, giving it a long, smooth finish.

Description
Sourced entirely from a vineyard that borders the esteemed Chateauneuf du Pape region, with identical 'Galet' stone soils. Grenache 80%, Syrah 15%, Mourvèdre 5%
This wine is a blend of three typical Côtes-du-Rhône grape varieties. The Grenache brings the power, the fat and the suppleness, the Syrah brings the fruit, and the Mourvèdre the structure and the framework. Clear red, this wine exalts aromas of ripe red fruits, spices, thyme and licorice. On the palate it is elegant, with silky tannins and a long spicy finish.
A brooding nose of dusty earth and dried herbs. Exceptionally well made, balancing warmth and ripe fruity characters with fine tannins and fresh acidity.
The vineyard belongs to the Bressy family, the 3rd generation of whom takes care of the vineyard today. Domaine Les Cassanets is located in Courthézon, just a few meters from the vineyards in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
