First established in 1947, Domaine Brusset is now being run by the familys third generation in Cairanne, the heart of the Southern Rhone. The Les Travers Cairanne Cotes du Rhone Villages is a hand harvested blend of Syrah, Mourvedre, Grenache, and Cinsault. The grapes are destemmed and fermented in large vats before aging in a older barrels of various sizes. Aromas of ripe blackberry and black cherry lead to a rich palate of similar fruit thats been spiced with black pepper, cedar, and garrigue. The concentrated flavor is emphasised by firm but lush tannins and a lengthy finish. Enjoy this lovely red with grilled meats or game, and with flavorful cheeses.
