Tasting: Chateau Guiot Costieres de Nimes
Name: Chateau Guiot Costieres de Nimes
Variety: Grenache, Syrah-Shiraz
Region: Rhone
Country: France
Year: 2014
Price: $10.95
MajesticWine Notes: "Deep purple hue, a beautifully scented nose with herby aromas, lashings of juicy forest fruits and spicy, rich berry flavours on the palate and a good, smooth finish."
My Review: Faint on the nose. Medium-bodied and slightly dry. Flavors of chalk and black pepper on the mid-palate. Finishes with a taste of cherries.
I tasted this wine with chocolate. The sweetness of the chocolate made the chalk and pepper become replaced by flavors of oranges and ripe cherries.
