Costières de Nîmes|Red wine

3.9/5 (21 customers)

Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
"The 2011 Costières de Nîmes Vieilles Vignes has a dense purple color with a sweet nose of white flowers, scorched earth, blueberry, blackberry and incense. Medium to full-bodied, and supple with purity, texture and impressive length, it should drink well over the next 4-5 years." (Wine Advocate Oct. 2012 - Robert Parker)
