Grand Rouge

Philippe Girardet is a native of the French side of Switzerland from a town near the headwaters of the Rhone River. The Rhone wine region in France is well known for it's superb blended wines, and it is this blending art that we consider to be the heart of the Girardet Grand Rouge. It is a master blend of 14 varietals.

*Tasting Notes:* Displaying a bright medium ruby color, this wine opens with smokey aromas of warm toasted walnuts and smooth vanilla. Lightly sweet in the mid-pallet, flavors of luscious raspberry and currant set for a pleasing cherry finish with a touch of toasted oak. “The one wine you can bring to dinner and it will go with everything!” Recommended aging: 1 to 5 years from vintage date.
