Product Information
Sales Information
Approachable blend of Grenache sprinkled with Syrah; textured plum and strawberry fruit rounds off the palate, making this a delicious, uncomplicated light-medium bodied, soft, fruity and very drinkable red... yet serious enough to accompany food.
Drink with hearty food such as grilled meats and casseroles. Also great with BLTs, pizzas and medium mature, hard cheeses.
The Vineyard
The southern Rhone valley is swathed in warm sunny vineyards and peppered with hilltop stone-hewn villages on its rocky outcrops. Outside of the delimited areas of the famous village appellations, the wine the local vignerons make and enjoy with their friends in the village cafes and bistros is Pays de Vaucluse. Cuvée Jean Paul Rouge is made predominantly from a blend of Grenache and Syrah from the Vin de Pays de Vaucluse. Traditional Rhone-based viticulture is used with part manual/part machine harvest.
Critics
Matthew Nugent, Irish Mail on Sunday, February 2012:
"A real bargain from the Vaucluse that makes for an ideal, unfussy, midweek gluggable treat. Nice, spicy, fruity nose with lashings of plums and strawberries on the palate. Pass the bottle, please!"
