Boutinot Limited | Cotes du Rhone La Fleur Solitaire - NV

Paler ruby than some earlier vintages due to the extreme proportion of Grenache, the nose is however as explosive, plush and opulent as ever, layered with exotic spice, cracked black pepper and of course streaked with crushed vanillin. The palate is instantly appealing, polished and smooth on entry but steeped in depth and texture as the flavours swirl around, lengthen and delight. The lasting impression is satisfying - a big, oppulent and sweet Grenache driven wine with obvious oak quality, great structure, length and finish.

Producer Information

It’s not just this shared passion for people that makes us different but our total and unwavering belief that making great entry-level wines is bloody difficult, but we do it bloody well. We’ve been doing it for quite some time now. As well as dedicated teams in the UK, France, South Africa and the USA, our people are all over the world covering areas such as Canada, China, south east Asia and the whole of Europe. 150 of the world’s best producers trust us to represent their wines, and we’ve proudly maintained some of those relationships for decades. We’re constantly on the hunt for new and interesting people to work with who share our values and philosophy about great wine, refreshing our portfolio and bringing newness to customers. But we’re not just agents, we’re hands-on, ‘dirt under our nails’ winemakers too. We have a partnership with a co-operative in Italy, two vineyards in France, a farm in South Africa, and an English garden vineyard. Today, Boutinot Wines is one of the leading UK-based distributors of quality wines from around the world. Our portfolio consists of over 1600 wines and we sell more than 44 million bottles each year. Every bottle we sell we’d be more than happy to take home and drink ourselves, which we do. It helps to have strong arms at Boutinot.
