Mas Grand Plagniol, Costières de Nîmes, Rouge 'Tradition', Rhone, France, 2022

COTE DU RHONE 

Overview of the Wine
Sixth-generation Cyril Marès is one of the Costières de Nîmes’ greatest producers. In addition to running the family estate, he also runs Mas Grand Plagniol, both of which are farmed sustainably in one of the Rhône Valley’s most up-and-coming appellations. The region’s reputation is prized for the high quality of its terroir, which is rich in red clay and limestone and galet roulés which are known for insulating the vines during inclement weather.

The region boasts a viticultural history going back several centuries Before Common Era when the Greeks were reputed to have planted vines in the area. Viticulture was further encouraged by Roman expansion and then, in the early Middle Ages, by the church.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
We challenge you to find a wine that better combines aromatic flair, suave texture and sheerly delicious spicy Rhône fruit at such a silly price. The wines always show exceptional aromatic appeal, supple texture and uncannily intelligent balance between fruit and oak.
