Description

A distinctive Merlot from Domaine des Tours, the Rhône estate associated with Château Rayas, this 2011 stands apart from the region’s more familiar Grenache-led reds. Its unusual grape choice and mature vintage offer an intriguing glimpse of the estate’s independent approach.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby colour, developing garnet at the rim with age. The aroma may show ripe plum and dark cherry alongside savoury, earthy notes and hints of spice.

Production
The available information does not specify the vineyard site, harvest method or winemaking details for this bottle. Domaine des Tours is based in the southern Rhône, where the warm, Mediterranean climate provides a markedly different setting for Merlot than its better-known homes in Bordeaux.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C, with a little time in the glass. Pair it with roast lamb, grilled beef, or hearty mushroom dishes. Given the wine’s age, taste before decanting; if it has sediment, decant gently just before serving.

Producer
Château Rayas is a renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape estate, long associated with the Reynaud family and a distinctive, understated style. Domaine des Tours is another Reynaud property in the southern Rhône, producing wines that often explore varieties and expressions beyond the region’s usual conventions.
