The 2015 Rasteau Vielles Vignes from Domaine Fond Croze is a wonderful blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre. It opens to gorgeous aromas of dark berries, dried spices, leather, violets and hints of chocolate all taking shape. On the palate this displays wonderful overall structure and balance, with a delicious core of black and red fruits. The finish is long and expansive as it leaves a lasting impression. Excellent now, but we best with another year or two of bottle age. (Best 2017-2027) - October, 2017 (MD)
