RHONE-ESQUE FRENCH RED TO ENJOY NOW OR AGE!
“This is exactly the kind of wine I dream of and am always on the lookout for, but can only find every once in a while! This is a wine that completely over delivers in the style of wine I crave, but without breaking the bank. When I tasted this gem of a wine last week, I took every bottle the importer (Kermit Lynch) had left, which was not a lot. So, don’t hesitate on this one! This wine is from the South of France, but it drinks like a $30 Saint Joseph or Crozes Hermitage with its exploding aromas of red and black fruits, spice, violets, and grilled meat. The texture has great elegance and finesse with the perfect amount of balanced lushness, which makes this wine super easy to drink without weighing you down. My new summer BBQ sipper for sure! There is no score on this wine and the critics have missed this wine completely. But, who cares! Trust me on this one before the critics do figure it out and make this wine less obtainable. Enjoy!” –Jim Knight, The Wine House
