1998 Chateau De Montfaucon Cotes Du Rhone

This wine has been made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Carignan. Bright, brick red colour. Medium body. The colour seems a touch too advanced. The nose is appealing, with notes of spice, leather, a hint of earth, followed by a confectionary and violet end note. The palate flavours are light, with firmish dry tannins and confectionary, earth and stewed fruit flavours. Lingering dryish tannins.
