Elodie Balme Cotes Du Rhone

Good concentration for a 2024, juicy red berry fruits. It's a bit reductive now, so give it a decant. Hints of dark chocolate and olive on the nose bring some further interest to the wild strawberry and raspberry fruit. Good sense of finesse, vibrancy and drinkability.

The vibrant, perfumed 2024 Côtes du Rhône Rouge from Elodie Balme is a blend of 60% Grenache Noir, 30% Carignan and 10% Syrah. Bursting with aromas of dark cherries, tapenade, lilac, violet and spice, it’s medium-bodied, polished and supple, with a juicy core of fruit, velvety tannins and a long, floral and ethereal finish. Crafted from vines planted on sandstone and marl soils, this is a pure and gourmand expression of Elodie's thoughtful winemaking.
