Product description

Jean-Louis Chave is one of the most respected names in the Rhône Valley. While the domaine is best known for its legendary Hermitage wines, Chave’s “Mon Coeur” Côtes-du-Rhône is a remarkable expression of the Southern Rhône, blending fruit from top sites in Vinsobres, Cairanne, Séguret, and Valréas. This wine is crafted with the same meticulous care as the estate’s grander cuvées, offering exceptional depth, structure, and balance for a Côtes-du-Rhône.
