Rayas Réserve Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rhône, 1985

Product Details

Product Description

This producer also makes a white wine. Ensure your merchant has the color you are looking for. Critic tasting note: "The intoxicating, complex perfume of pure kirsch, fresh raspberry, pepper, earth, red plum liqueur, cherry blossoms and the equivalent of shoving your nose in an over-stuffed spice box drawer, makes it close to impossible to stop enjoying the aromas and taste the wine. The textures are pure silk and velvet with that unique exotic, and little bit of kinkiness that is only found in the top vintages of Rayas. Medium bodied, (Rayas is never about power) with a beautiful purity of spicy, ripe and over ripe red fruits, this is drinking at peak maturity. Fortunately, I still have one bottle left. I'll probably pop it when the wine hits 30, as I want to retain as much fruit and freshness as possible." - <i>97/100</i>, <i>Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider</i>
