Yapp Côtes du Rhône Red 2020
Free next day delivery when you spend £125
This terrifically versatile, mid-weight Grenache - Syrah blend is our sole geographic own label wine, deriving from the Côtes-du-Rhône... where else? It's rapport qualité-prix has proved hugely popular since we first introduced it to our customers in 2018.
From steeply-terraced vineyards around the village of Bourg-Saint-Andéol, with similar soils to much of the Rhône valley - galets roulés and gravel. Garnet colour, with a bouquet of raspberries, red fruit and spices. Nice length, round palate with silky and fine tannins. Serve with lamb, Mediterranean dishes, or a tagine with couscous.
