La Resistance Organic Côtes du Rhône 2018

Looking for something a little different? Here is a deliciously smashable French red that has something for everyone. There is fleshy mulberry and red cherry fruits, with a distinctive savoury feel, that are also lifted by a dusting of violets and spice. It’s quite bold for a Côtes du Rhône but never loses its French style. The palate continues along that savoury line with baked earth and tobacco complexity on a bed of dark fruits with meaty tannins rounding off a delicious package. Match it up with a cheese and charcuterie platter.
