Wine Tasting Domaine de Grange de Payan



Name: Domaine de Grange de Payan
Variety: Grenache
Region: Cotes du Rhone
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95

Winery review: Intensely spicy and precise, with lively red berry flavors and a hint of black pepper. The Grenache, which makes up the majority of the wine, is deeper and more powerful, offering cherry and black raspberry qualities lifted by zesty minerality 

My review: This wine smelled of intense cherries. The first initial smell was a big tannic cherry smell, it was quite intense. The wine was really bitter and mineral tasting. It was something really different for me and I did not enjoy it. I couldn't get past the mineral and bitter taste to taste anything else. I did not enjoy this wine at all. 

I tasted this on its own with no food.
