The 2024 Chastel Samson J’Suis Dans Le Rouge is a cheeky, confident red that embodies the richness and warmth of the Rhône Valley. Translating to “I’m in the Red,” the name plays with double meaning—both color and state of mind—but behind the fun lies a wine of real substance and style.
Crafted from Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, this cuvée shows the Rhône at its expressive best. The nose offers aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and black pepper with hints of garrigue herbs. On the palate, it is medium-full bodied with juicy blackberries, cocoa, and spice, all supported by soft tannins and a smooth, lingering finish. The 2024 vintage is marked by balance: ripe fruit from warm sunny days, freshness from cool nights, and structure that makes it both approachable now and capable of short-term aging.
J’Suis Dans Le Rouge is a red that fits both casual dining and special occasions. It’s bold enough for grilled meats yet smooth enough for an evening glass on its own. Its cheeky label and Rhône authenticity make it a standout on any table.
