The red wine Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC, vintage 2000 from the winery Château Rayas has been rated in 2012 with 93 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Grenache from the region Côtes du Rhône in France.
Medium carmine-garnet colour, ochre reflections, watery rim. Delicate strawberry confit, a hint of orange zest, background with fine white blossom flavours. Full-bodied, elegant, good complexity, firm tannins, underpinned by a salty minerality, pronounced fruit finish, shows very good length, fine caramel touch in the aftertaste. Already drinking well, still has further certain ageing potential. (Drink/store +10).
