Tasting- Reserve Grand Veneur Côtes du Rhône

Name: Reserve Grand Veneur Côtes du Rhône
Variety: Blended
Region: 
Rhône Valley
Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $14.95
Vintage Cellar Review: As for their other values, the 2010 Grand Veneur Côtes du Rhône Reserve (70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Cinsault) displays loads of ripe flavors. It is very concentrated for a Côtes du Rhôneand is actually an amazing wine. Classic garrigue, black cherry liqueur, lavender, licorice and spice box are all present in this full-bodied, intense, and rich Côtes du Rhône. This is a sensational effort to drink over the next 4-5 years, although it might last even longer.
My Review: This wine smelled like tobacco, cherries and spice. I tasted pepper and black licorice with a little cherry.  This wine was dry.  I did not like this wine. 
Food: Not tasted with food
