Ferraton Père & Fils, Samorëns Côtes-du-Rhône 2017, Rhone, France
Tasting Note: A Côtes-du-Rhône vintage from Ferraton that sings with black fruit.
Deep-intensity purple in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of black plum, raspberry, bramble, black cherry and blackberry puree.
On the palate the dry, full-bodied Côtes-du-Rhône has concentrated, medium-plus-intensity, black-fruit flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and velvety, medium-plus tannin.
The wine is balanced with the tannin adding weight on the palate.
A Côtes-du-Rhône that pleases the senses.
See 2017 vintage review.
Bottle Note: In the beginning, there was a region: the Rhone Valley. In 1946, there was a man with passion: Jean Ferraton. Today, our team is committed to ensuring the continuation of the knowledge. With the greatest respect for the “terroir” and the vine.
