Slightly reductive and hard to read aromatically at present, the 2018 Côtes Du Rhône nevertheless is deep, concentrated, and layered, on the palate, with plenty of potential. The blend is 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 10% each of Carignan and Cinsault, all destemmed and still aging in concrete tanks. My money is on it being an outstanding wine.
