Chateau Pesquie Quintessence (Ventoux France - Rhone Valley Vineyards)
Decanted: 1 1/2 hr
Cost: $27.99 (BC Liquor Store)
Tasting notes: Elegant and straight-forward. The nose is beautiful and is heavy berries and spring flowers. The palate is pomegranate and mild spice. The finish is long and delicious. Paired well with a Florentine pasta dish. The Rhone Valley really intrigues me. The similarities between it and Australia are there, but I find Rhone much more delicate even with a boldish grape like Shiraz. Another great summer time patio wine. Tres Bien! - HC
