"Made from 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre, the Alain Jaume 2011 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Rasteau Les Valats displays the baked, roasted herb-like characteristics of this hot appellation, intermixed with hints of chocolate, espresso, tar and kirsch. Medium to full-bodied, round, bold and exuberant, it can be enjoyed over the next 5-8 years. -JD"
