The 2001 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Rasteau a la Gloire de Mon Pere is a medium-bodied, soft, fleshy, juiced up version of the regular Rasteau produced by proprietors Marie-France and Thierry Masson. Dense, with sweet tannin, lovely elegance, and a Burgundian-like complexity as well as aromatic display. Enjoy it over the next 7-8 years.
