Wine Region: Rhone Valley - France
Grape: 100% Marsanne.
Tasting notes: Sweet char flavour overlays the exotic notes of pineapple and mango. Although youthful, the concentration is evident and the texture is almost chewy, making this wine fun yet tame at this stage.
Expert Rating: Wine Enthusiast, 90/100.
“On first whiff, this full-bodied Marsanne seems a bit quiet, suggesting faint earth and smoke. The palate, however, is ripe and penetrating, bursting with plump white grapefruit and apple. It's savory yet satisfyingly fruity. The finish is marked by hints of salted nut and tobacco leaf.”
About the Winery: Cave de Tain was founded in 1933 by Louis Gambert of Loche. Located between Valence and Lyon, Cave de Tain lies at the foot of the Hermitage hillside . At the heart of the historic northern Rhône vineyards, the cave produces and markets 5 wines and single varietal wines from over 1000 hectares of vines (Hermitage appellations, Crozes Hermitage, Saint Joseph, Cornas and Saint Peray) The leading producer of "vintage" wines in the northern Rhone Valley On the left bank of the Rhone River , the Hermitage hillside towers above the Crozes Hermitage appellation. On the right bank , from north to south, the vineyards of Saint Joseph, Cornas and Saint Péray cling to steep terraces. It is here, on granite and alluvial soils , resulting from a complex geological evolution offering amazing diversity , and at their most northern cultural limitation, that our grape varieties are at their best - Syrah for red wines, Marsanne for white wines.
