A blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Marselan and Carignan from 40-year-old vines, it leans into brandied cherry, blackcurrant and a savoury edge of black olive, with warm, sun-baked stone notes and a dusting of spice. Moderate acidity keeps things lively, while the tannins carry a faint iron-like grip rather than anything heavy-handed. It's built for the table rather than the cellar - pour it alongside charcuterie or a proper grilled steak and it does exactly what it's meant to.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the winery says:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eParallèle 45 comes from 40-year-old vines grown on clayey limestone soils with alluvial, pebble-strewn deposits in the Côtes du Rhône appellation. The blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Marselan and Carignan is hand-picked at maturity; the secondary varieties are co-fermented with the Grenache to help fix colour and tannin, while the Syrah is vinified separately with a gentler, three-week maceration. The wine is aged for six months in stainless steel and truncated cone-shaped vats on fine lees before bottling. Jaboulet describes the style as fruity and generous, lifted by delicate spice, and finishing fresh - best served around 16 to 18°C alongside charcuterie, grilled meats or a good moussaka.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dhall \u0026 Nash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53182026744175,"sku":"100572","price":161.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/2252\/6319\/files\/PaulJabouletAineParallele45CotesduRhoneRouge2024.jpg?v=1784020983","url":"https:\/\/stolencellar.co.nz\/products\/paul-jaboulet-aine-parallele-45-cotes-du-rhone-rouge","provider":"Stolen Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
