Description

The Cotes Du Rhone Rouge ‘Cuvee Bonheur’ from  Dom. La Loyanne is a typical Rhone blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah and shows complex dark fruits with garrigue notes on the nose along side the odd whiff of violets.  The delicious and more’ish palate is rich and concentrated showing great depth and elegance through to the balanced finish.  Like all the wines from Loyanne, this is such as joy to drink and provides superb value for money.


This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts.  They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic ‘Galet’ pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape.  As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.
