A well-balanced, aromatic wine that is easy to drink and goes well with many meat dishes.

Powerful, well-balanced, slightly tannic wine with aromas of black fruit, spices and liquorice.
very good value for money.
I hesitated between 4 stars and 4 and a half.
great with grilled prime rib or bull sausage.

I love you Côtes du Rhône Villages wines. In this Rasteau remains some tannins and I think after keeping them another 2-3 years it is at its peak. Always my opinion with wines of this appellation, serve at 16°.

A fine expression of the appellation's traditional grape varieties. Young but already very tasty!

A serious wine that deserves a few years' cellaring!
Domaine Grand Nicolet
Domaine Grand Nicolet is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 9 wines available to purchase, including the wine Terre Des Bertrand 2023.
Appellation
Rasteau
The appellation Rasteau is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Grand Nicolet and its 9 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
