Domaine du Séminaire, Les Saffres, 2023

Cote du Rhone might be the most versatile red wine on planet earth. Any food, this will go down a treat at the dinner party.

Full bodied, fruit-forward, touch of spice, they are the ultimate gastronomic wine, virtually impossible to make a bad pairing with.

Honestly, I've even chilled this and had it with fish and chips, it was a winner.

Southern Rhone, this is a stone's throw from Chateauneuf-du-Pape, and has similar punch and spice lying beneath that fruity friendly demeanour.
