The Jaboulet Cotes du Rhone "Parallele 45" (buy direct) is a consistent Grenache-Syrah based blend year in and year out. The 2006 vintage has plenty of palate appeal, with cherry and blackberry dominating the fruit profile and an attractive smoke and earth contingent supporting the fruit. You can expect beautiful balance, subtle, silky tannins and a nice smooth finish.

This is a very welcoming medium-bodied red wine that will play well with the likes of pork, poultry, pizza and pasta with hearty meat-based toppings.
