Château d'Aigueville
Village Côtes du Rhône Grenache Blend
Côtes du Rhône, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Ok, so this is an interesting wine. Like its big brother, the chateau Neuf du Pape you cannot rush this wine. Uncorked it tastes like vinegar or a cheap cheap red plonk. But give it a day to air (yes it needs a day) and it rewards with a full bodied, well thought out blend of flavours (I am English and that's how you spell it). It's really a great wine hiding behind tough exterior. Put the time and effort in and you'll be rewarded with a wine that is almost up to the level of it big brother. Go forth a sup to your hearts content. It's a lovely wine.
