Tour de France Wine Gift Set

Take a tour through France and discover three great wines from the Old World – a Pinot Noir, a Bordeaux, and a Rhone Blend. Each wine is chosen to display the unique characteristics of the region it represents: a fruity yet savory Pinot Noir from the south of France, a classic bold Red Blend from Bordeaux, and a spicy red Rhone Blend from the Cotes-du-Rhone Villages. Passport not required.

Wine Gift Set Includes:

• Bordeaux Red: Chateau Fontaubert
  Violet color with ripe dark fruit of plum and cassis. Concentrated mid-palate with a touch of herbs and tobacco leaf. Balance with good acidity finishing with a long ripe tannin finish.
• Rhone Valley Blend: Le Cellier des Princes Cotes du Rhone La Couronne du Prince
  This wine has been selected from the best parcels just outside of the Cheateauneuf du Pape area of appellation based on their soil, age and grape varieties with small yields. This wine is a blend of three classic grape varieties from the Chateauneuf du Pape area: Syrah, Grenache & Mourvèdre. The Syrah brings the structure, the spices with aromas of violets and a deep ruby color. The Grenache brings strength, fatness and softness. The Mourvèdre brings tannins and body. Thanks to the oak barrel aging, the wine is very complex, showing toasted notes of vanilla, grilled spices and licorice perfume. This top Cuvée of Côtes du Rhône is very sophisticated, well balanced and shows a lot of elegance and finesse.
• Pinot Noir: Bouchard Pere & Fils Reserve Bourgogne Pinot Noir
  Intense color. Very aromatic bouquet of small ripe red fruits (cherry, raspberry, currant). Beautiful flesh in mouth, a delicious marriage where tannins and fruits are pleasantly mixed.
• Printed insert that describes the featured wines.
